Sporadic

That is the word for the day, maybe this month as evidenced by the rate of blogging I have gotten done this month. Shooting has been busier that the blogging which I guess is a good thing. One could blog full time if they wanted to. I think of David Ziser and his tremendous blog Digital Pro Talk... Every day. The amount of content David puts out is absolutely astounding.

Photography is not my primary source of income and therefore must fall into the orders of life's priorities. While it is a business, it must be moderated with the other strings pulling at my time. My lofty goals of one blog of worth per day remains a goal and to that end I will continue in my blogging efforts as I truly enjoy spewing my thoughts out in this cyber format. I have in the past had make-up posts to cover days I have missed, I will no longer be doing this as it is water under the bridge.

Anyhow for today I have a few images to share with you from our Hawaii trip.

We took a day to do some exploring off the beaten path and went up to the tip of the big island. We had already been to the other end of the island which was the southern most point in the United States. The winds we blowing pretty good and the waves were breaking nicely.

A quick look at Google maps gives a little insight into where you might be going but it really misses the mark for first hand information.

The first image in the post was take from a breaker of lava rock I climbed on to get the shot. Shown in the image above by the red arrow. Being careful not to get too close to get my gear spayed with salt water. I would do daily gear cleaning when we got back to the hotel just to get the salty grime off from the air. Below is a picture of a local riding some surf before it got too crazy. It was taken from the vantage point shown on the image above represented by the yellow arrow.

He did not stay too long as the surf was changing and getting a little more unpredictable. Seeing that the surface is all volcanic rock, I don't blame him.

Hope you'll understand about the postings and pleas come on back. I will be here!

Cya... Doug
