Surfers Coffee

Coffee meeting in one of my favorite cafe on Oahu. This place is about 30 min drive from Waikiki area but well worth the drive.

I am working on a new project and today's meeting is all about that. It's such a process but doing it right and to bring my image / inspiration to life is a process I enjoy and Little caffeine is always needed.

Sunset is a magical time signaling the days end.

The time seems to take a pause so that we can reflect on the day we just lived.

The last burning sun of the day, signaling the day is almost over.

And its closing time for everyone.

When the sun melts into the horizon and the in between times when its not day but not yet night is my favorite.

Our days are always so busy and I long for these times when you can pause and breath, to see the beauty that surrounds us and to appreciate what we already have is a treasure in itself.

Hawaii Big Island Day 2 (Part 3)

Nikon Zfc / Nikkor Z 40mm F2

Our last stop for this trip is the beautiful town of Hilo.

Hilo is a old town with lots of local shops, eatery and cafe,

there is such a local vibe here and it takes you back to good old Hawaii.

I love the ambience of the entire town.

You just don't feel this kind of vibe on Oahu and if you want to get away where time flows little slower and the each day feel little longer big island is the place to be.

Traveling from Oahu to big island is such a short & easy trip but well worth the travel with lots to explore. I recommend it for anyone visiting Hawaii. It always a nice little get away but it's time to go back to Oahu!
