Pu'u ohi'a trail
The first time David, Janelle, and I attempted this hike we all got bug bites. This time we took the bridal party out, but doused everyone with bug spray so the wedding pictures wouldn't be messed up. As you can tell, we completed the hike unscathed and not too tired because we were able to walk to Denny's for a celebratory lunch afterwards! =)
All and all, a great time, we hiked through the rain, eluded the wild pigs, and avoided slipping off cliffs with possibilities of serious injury or death. And despite not having the shoes for it, and Ina's 100% prediction of doom and death, I made it through! My chucks are a bit worse for wear, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
Getting here was a bit tough since it's really difficult finding the trails unless you knew where you were going, luckily we had some Hawaiian natives with us who showed us the way! The hike wasn't too tough, there are some great scenic shots of Hawaii and it was great getting to know everyone a little bit better. Plus, it helped me justify getting a shake afterwards :)

Heading this way...
Working in Ayr recently...and whenever I'm away at a coastal town, I always prefer to stay at a hotel right on the front so that I can watch any developments in the weather. On this night, I finished work at about 7pm and got to the hotel at about 7.20..I could see the clouds covering the Isle of Arran (just visible on the horizon) and the sun doing it's best to try and breakthrough.
I managed to lose the suit, throw on some jeans and a sweatshirt and get out for 15 minutes of shooting before the rain arrived and soaked me to the skin.
Thank heavens for waterproof camera bags and hotels close by.
