A View from Bellows

Orchids 1746

I took this picture some time ago. It was such a beautiful day and a perfect time for capturing some island scenes. I always see this picture at an ad but I never really know the name of the islands until now. It is called Na Mokulua Islands, the twins.

The blue sky is such a wonderful backdrop for the crystal blue waters of the beach. The sand is white with a pinkish hue and glitters as the sun hits.

There’s so much to absorb and I feel blessed as the breeze sway the pine trees letting my mind go with each movement and helped me relax.

    I like to collect small cacti plants and succulents. It started ever since I came to the US in 1981. We live in a small apartment and there’s no place for me to do some gardening. My elder brother has a lot of succulents in their garden so I ask for some. Its just the…

    I was walking towards the bus stop when I came across a tree full of lichens. It attracted my attention because of the yellow color. I usually see lichens that are grayish or white like most fungus are. I learned that lichens are not parasites. They do not consumed the plants or tree that they…
