Skywatch Friday – A New Dawn at the Waters Edge

 

 

Another new dawn begins in Puna on the Eastern Side of Hawaii Island, I crawled out of bed early even though the sunrise is late at 7am in our land.

But I’m glad I woke up early…..

 

                         … because mornings are truly special and worth taking a moment of your day to reflect and appreciate the simple things in life and how you want your day to begin.

  5. Noel, the sunrise is truly magical, just like the ones I see on TV. When I was little, mom and I used to admire those of Hawaii Five-O on TV and she'd always remark to me that it seemed like paradise on earth. You are a good photographer and you have captured it well.

  18. Aloha Noel! Just found this post as I was listening to snow plows coming down our street so I found the photos especially appealing. I used to walk Hanalei Bay beach at sunrise on family vacations when I was there with my family years ago so these evoke lots of memories. Thanks for such a lovely post.
