Photo du jour: Dawn

Near Hanauma Bay, Hawaii. Afterwards, you can go snorkeling in the Bay with tropical fish (you see more fish early in the day :)).

{An August Break Continued Post: Photographed on Oahu.}

P.S. I'd rather be behind the camera than in front, but here's a hazy photo of me in this location, after dawn - I was watching waves and saw whales by chance! (Sadly hard to photo)
P.P.S. Why am I always soo overdue for a haircut?

  6. What a beautiful sunrise! I went snorkeling in Hawaii a couple of years ago. It was one of the most awesome experiences I've ever had--to be swimming in the vast ocean with all these lovely creatures!

  7. How beautiful.

    I agree. I'd rather be behind the camera than in front. All if your Hawaii pictures are beautiful.

  12. Dawn is my favorite time of day. I love getting up just before the sun and watching it wake the world. Seems everything is so full of promise, then as the light floods in, the birds start singing. I love it.

  24. I so envy your location. Some friends of ours just got stationed in Hawaii too and they've been posting pics of them snorkeling, and just enjoying the water on their facebook page.I'm So Jealous!:-). What haircut? I didn't even notice that:-). XX
