Wind and Stormy Weather

Uploaded: January 05, 2013

Description

Maui is experiencing extreme winds and rainy weather ever since we arrived January 1st.
The Hyundai PGA Golf Tournament has been cancelled two days in a row. Wind squalls that howled down off the mountains above Maui were so severe Friday that tour officials scrapped the first round of the Tournament of Champions. Today was more of the same weather with wind warnings throughout the islands. Not what I expected to find in Paradise. It is difficult to photograph anything in this weather.

Great capture Heather even with the wind and stormy weather, I would trade places with you in a heart beat because we both know that its not going to last. Are you staying at the same place as last year or some place new.

Thank you for all of your generous comments and well wishes as I truly appreciate you taking the time to write. I'm glad to hear that your enjoying your new camera I just wish I could get out and do some shooting but I'm still restricted on what I can do and its driving me up a wall.

Enjoy your Winter vacation Heather in paradise and I look forward to more of your beautiful photos of Maui.

Thanks again for your well wishes as they truly meant a lot to me. #10506051
