Kona Side

This is a view from 1200-1500 feet up, looking west toward the Pacific Ocean into the weather that has sat on Hawaii since Wednesday. It is trying its best to clear. Note, the foreground is lava fields.

Later, it socked in again and I thought the sunset would be a fizzle. Never doubt the sunsets in Hawaii. I was treated to a sun disfused by a shower sitting on the horizon. Behind the curtain of rain, the sun shimmered as if it sat on the hot Sahara sands, but the light was as a soft as a whisper.

I recommend you blow this photo up.
