Huna po (yesterday)

Huna. The horns of Mahina are softened. The Moon fattens.

Libby Beach faces West on the North side of Whidbey moku. The Huna po (this shot taken just after the sun was at zenith ... around 1 PM).
Clouds were busy today. Low hanging and a mixed bag of shapes.

Waves! Small swells but long and sure.

The curl of white water

The kani (sound) of ocean playing with the pohaku (stones) at the shore. Beautiful.

So many families of clouds today

The colors of water and sky, land and sea

Back in the woods. Hina (and Jupiter which I couldn't find in my camera) were visible through a hazy gauze cloud cover. The shape of our vardo roof inspired by the curve of haumea and hina (earth and moon) ... we get to see their companionship here.

Huna and the La'au (tall trees of pine and fir)
