i took a picture
This summer, when we had to get out of our house because of black mold, we used points to go stay at a friend’s house in Hawaii. I mean, if you have to be driven out of your home, there are worse ways to spend your time, right?
So they live in Hana, on Maui. We flew to Kahului, then took a little Buddy Holly killing plane up to their place. On the flight, I took this picture, which I love so much I made it my desktop wallpaper. I’m really happy with the accidental composition, and the colors bring me great joy. I thought about sharing this on Reddit or Imgur, and decided that, rather than put it someplace where nobody will see it, I’d put it here, in my own dumb blog, for anyone who wants to look at it, or use it for their own desktop or whatever.

Wil, you are the absolute best.
It's very nice. I'd like to say something profound about how well the colors compliment each other or something with the word "juxtaposition" in it, but all my brain came up with was "Green and blue look nice."Good job. brain!
But also, very lovely picture.
Nice, must be breathtaking to actually see it
I miss Hawaii so much, it's a beautiful place. The way the ocean meets the land is like a little drama playing out with every wave that crashes into the cliffs.
The picture is great, but really got a giggle at the phrase " a little Buddy Holly killing plane" and plan to steal the it the next time I'm approaching some terrifying commuter plane. Seeing as how you're famous and all, it isn't really "stealing". It's more like "quoting".
Sounds like a great choice for spending time well while waiting for house. Thank you, black mold.
How great is it that you have something you personally created as your screen saver, especially with your own back story!
We were there in early June and stayed in Lahaina. It's beautiful! Did half the road to Hana and aged a couple years in the process!
Thank you so very much for sharing this. It is quite a serene composition you accidentally produced there. I can only imagine how the view must have felt when you were there. Thanks for your contributions be it small or big.
