I try to make a habit of bringing my camera with me where ever I go to capture those interesting moments and movements of life. For your viewing pleasure are more of those moments with appearances of some of my more favorite characters.

There are a fascinating number of little beach parks in Hilo and each of them are just wonderful. You only have to peek around the corner and find a view devoid of human existance

"Kudzu "my beautiful enemy" is a lovely vine with lush green foliage and grape-scented purple flowers that hummingbirds love. As a destructive, imported plant known for its rapid growth, it is appropriately named."

None the less this little spot in the Akaka Falls State park is a scene from a tropical dream

Bamboo

The hike to Akaka Falls on the Big Island takes you through a wonderland of tropical fauna and my favorite bamboo complete with moss!

This beautiful little spot is somewhere in Pahoa and I have lost its location. It is possible I was transported into the South Pacific and didn't even know it.
