Dimensional test for vertical images. You might notice that this is the same scene from which photograph #627 originated.

Kauai Sunrise

Kauai Sunrise

On our last morning in Hawaii, I caught the glimmer of pink during sunrise, rare during the cloudy/rainy winter season. I sprinted the 200 yards out to the ocean in time to catch the sunrise you see here. I’ll post a vertical shot I got of the sunrise later.

Come the end of the January, things will be looking quite a bit different around here.

Kilauea Lighthouse

Tremendous lighthouse, this. It has the largest Fresnel lens in the world (4 tons!), hand ground in France. It was lifted up from the ocean 110 feet below, and when eventually installed, spun on a friction-reducing bed of mercury until an electronic light replaced it in 1976.
