Dimensional test for vertical images. You might notice that this is the same scene from which photograph #627 originated.
Thanks, Nils, for the inspiration for the title.
As promised back on photograph #620, here’s a test vertical image from Hawaii. Been planning this feature for about three months now — let’s hope it works!
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.
Because of the way the wind swept through (we were on the windward, not leeward side of the island), and due to the frequent sun showers, one could see really vivid rainbows that dropped down right into the middle of fields. Pretty amazing.
I returned a few days ago from my trip with my family to Kau’i, Hawai’i. Tumbledry has slept peacefully over the holidays, but there are some big things going on in the background. I’m way way backlogged on adding some great photos and great links. There are stories to be told, and oh yeah, that redesign is still going great guns in the background. Come the end of the January, things will be looking quite a bit different around here.
A better, vertical, version of this picture will be posted when the redesign of tumbledry has been completed.
At the Guava Kai plantation.
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.
