"Looking Back"

I sat in my favorite little tidal pool....taking pictures of the shoreline in front of me. One of my favorite views this little pool is only here in the winter and a few weeks of summer. I know the time i have in this space is limited...and then this view i love so much will change until next winter. I just happened to turn around...to look behind me. I was NOT alone anymore.... Mother Nature, one of the only places "LOOKING BACK" can be just stunning!!

How lovely to spent some alone time like this and have a turtle visit you.

When you say its only there in winter, does it mean that in summer the sea doesn't puch into it because its calmer?

Yes Fire the tides become lower the wind blows the sand from down the beach into the little pool.... it fills with sand and sits there till Dec January when the big waves clear out the sand =)

So true. Often the best photographs are in the opposite direction. Thank you for the reminder and the beautiful turtle photo.

Returning Home

Image
It is time for me to return to the North Shore full time. It is at Waimea Bay on the North Shore of Oahu, that I sit and wait for the tell tale ripples of water that signal the DOLPINS have arrived! The water calming down from the massive winter waves that just a few weeks ago pounded this side of the island, i return to her shores full time with glee! I will be subjected to the teasing of the regulars at the Bay who jokingly say, "Wheres the dolphins, Lani?" I always say in my mind, "There are far worse places I would need to wait!" LOLOL. This weekend the Bay gave a sneak performance of how magnificent her waters will be! Clear beautiful water, clean beautiful sand, the sun creating stain glass window like patterns on the sandy sea floor. And if that isn't enough the days of spring and summer on the North shore of Oahu, end with sunsets that are just magic!

They swam by me at mach speed swimming into the bay.. they turned around and passed me again checking out my orange swimsuit. I dont think they like it...LOL... It was good to see them.. they played tag with me for awhile, back and forth, back and forth. Finally exhausted i hauled myself out of the water and watched as they came close to shore , if i would of stayed in the water i would of got some major pics. I was just too tired,they are much much better swimmers than i am... lol...till next time.... I am an island gal.......
