LadyKatesPhotography > April 21 After my last 4 DP's, it was an absolute must to include one of these! That's me, towards the left, sitting at the top of Waipo'o Falls: a mere 800 --plus--feet to the valley floor! Another shot taken by my husband. A truly spectacular place! Check out another view from across this canyon, looking over towards where I am sitting here, at the top of the smaller (middle) falls.
LadyKatesPhotography > April 19 In my DP for yesterday, I mentioned "Take note of the reddish-colored, bare promontory"; in this image, we are now standing on top and towards the highest part of that bare 'dome'! With absolutely no other growth nearby, this "Lone Soldier" is proud and stately. Quite a unique tree and is rooted precariously close to the drop-off edge, and that is one heck of a drop! Please reference here for a different perspective of this bare dome area. And if you really look, you will notice this tree at the highest part of the dome, in the middle! After I took this shot, I turned to my right and this magnificient scene was greeting us! ******************************************************************************************************************************************************** Weekly Challenge: Tree (s)
LadyKatesPhotography > April 18 Still working on Kauai photos. My husband took this one, showing our destination in Waimea (thanks Bill! I spelled it right, this time!) Canyon, to Waipo'o Falls. In a guide book I found the description of a hike taking us to the top of those falls; which when combined, cascade over 800 ft! Yes! We went on that wonderful, sometimes strenuous, little hike of @ 3 1/2 miles round trip. So, a few hours from the time of this shot, we were sitting at the top of the highest--smaller--falls, with our feet dangling over the rocks, experiencing a BREATHTAKING view, looking towards where I'm standing here! Take note of the reddish-colored, bare promontory to the right of the top of my head, and tune in again tomorrow!! ********************************************************************************************************************************************************** Mark Twain once called Waimea Canyon the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific" and he was certainly right to do so. The area was built up by lava flows, but eons of erosion have carved a 10-mile-long, 1-mile-wide, and more than 3,600 foot deep gorge.

LadyKatesPhotography > April 17 Spent some time today working with photos from our recent trip to Kauai. Wiemea Canyon - - - Spectacular! Two shot panorama
LadyKatesPhotography > April 10 Hey......Kurt Preston, this one is for you! This is one of our new friends in Kauai! After this one joined us for breakfast, lunch and dinner several times, we chose to give our friend a name! *************************************************************************************************************************************** KurtPreston---one of our resident bird encyclopedias---offered this info: "Red Crested Cardinal (also called the Brazilian Cardinal)... "
LadyKatesPhotography > March 28 It was while we were renting our car at the airport when I heard the first rooster crow. I had forgotten about the fact that Kauai is inundated with chickens! THEY ARE EVERYWHERE! I saw a t-shirt featuring one of these beautiful roosters - it read "The Kauai Road Warrior" ! I was giggling as I took these photos, thinking of this DP community, and the fact that you would expect this post from me! Yeah..... me on a gorgeous tropical garden isle, running across poultry every time I turned around! Huummm!? Hey, at least I didn't try to dress them up!
LadyKatesPhotography > March 27 This explains my being M.I.A. ! This is where I just spent 10 wonderful days of R & R ! My husband and I had plans to leave two days after the Raul Malo concert. I chose to leave the laptop at home, and stay away from internet availability; today is the first day I've been near my computer for quite awhile now. I must admit that I've missed this DP community! I've missed all of the incredible photography presented by you very talented and creative S'Muggers, and missed updates on many of you!! We certainly enjoyed our time away together in such a beautiful Paradise. Had more clouds, winds and rain than sun, but that actually was condusive to more R & R. We stayed the first half of our time on the North side, past Hanalei, at Kepuhi Point, with the above pictured Kanaha Beach as part of our front yard! We spent the second half on the South side, at Poipu. The above pictured Shipwreck Beach was an area just south of us. We did manage to get around quite a bit, went on a couple of awesome--kick-ass--hikes and OMG......the photos I have to sort through and choose from!! I'll probably be posting quite a few of them! I highly commend my husband for being so very patient with me and my passion for photos! He's going to use one of them on his new business cards, so I was on at least one particular mission! The Shipwreck Beach image is a three-shot pano and Kanaha Beach is a two shot pano.
