Dare Devil
The Trade Winds have been blowing strong since we arrived in Maui. (I'd almost believe I was home on the prairies.) Several palm trees had broken fronds dangerously waving in the wind. These are very heavy and pose a danger should they fall on a person. Today a landscape company cut the broken fronds down. It was fascinating to watch as this man shinnied up the trunk to trim the fronds. These palm trees are extremely tall and I shot this image from a third floor balcony.
