Perched on a bluff overlooking the vast Pacific Ocean, the Kilauea Lighthouse stands as a silent sentry. When it was built in 1913, it had the largest clamshell lens in existance and was used until the mid ’70s when it was replaced by a bacon.

One of my favorite activities from our vacation was going up Na Pali Coast in Kauai. The weather in typical Kauai fashion changed constantly. The locals say “if you don’t like the weather now, just wait five minutes.” I liked the different shades of gray in the mountains in this photograph and the green highlights in the inbetween.

While in Kauai we visited the Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa in Poipu and was wondering around the grounds and saw this beautiful swan. As I watched and photographed the swan, these fish started circling the swan and I thought it made for a comical photo.

On our vacation to Kauai on the last day we discovered this beautiful garden and the water lilies were just fantastic. This picture ended up being one of my favorite from the whole trip, so I thought I would share it with you.
