The Sun by Siwa

 

Today's post is all about the sun.

I love the translucence of  certain objects held up to the sun.
 Glass looks brighter and the colors show up better. When you look through leaves or petals,
you can see the tiny cells and veins glowing in the light.

On one of our hikes we ended up taking much longer than planned, waiting for the stragglers to catch up.
By the time everyone finished the hike, the sun had started to set behind the trees. 

Sunrise over Molokai. Just under the sun is the faint outline of Molokai, and below that is a surfer.
