generally when i walk, i'm on the street looking down at this scene. the only road around the island of kauai is narrow and a single lane, but it is shared by cars, pedestrians and cyclists. this picture was taken pretty early in the morning when the water looks calm. in the afternoon it builds up to a much wilder state. this is the side of the island which has enormous surf in the winter. thanks for your kind words and suggestions!

You're making me really envious Jen and missing these beautiful sights. The color of the water is magnificant against that blue sky as well. The lighting and clarity are both right on and perfect. It is a very calming scene, even with the wind blowing through that palm the way it is. Awesome post and thanks for sharing it.

Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel. -Josemaria Escriva

Umm... Wow! Looks like a postcard to me. Wouldn't change a thing. The water has a terrific blue color, terrific sky color and the vegetation is in perfect clarity. Thanks for sharing.

Here's a postcard!! Boy, Jen, you have a talented eye! The greens, the blues, the beach - so well done. I have my little drink with the umbrella here - do I have your permission to print and send it to my friends, "Having a great time" ? :)) - Patty

A friend of mine works in a camera store. The other day a very confused looking woman approached the counter and handed my friend a camera. She said "I took pictures, but I forgot to have film in the camera. Can you please get them out of the camera for me?"
