A Window on the Sea

A window creates a view. In this case, the window is a natural arch, carved by wave action. The view is such a contrast to the dark rocks that it looks fake, but I can assure you I was standing there in the wind taking this photo. In fact this arch is somewhat famous, sitting as it does, right off the coast of Laie, Hawaii. This tranquil scene was a contrast to the bus loads of tourists who were being hustled about by overly aggressive tour directors who were less than polite. Fortunately, I have assiduously avoided that type of tour and we could walk around and look at the scenery without someone telling us to hurry or worse yet, explaining what we were seeing.
