Great Travel Moment

The first and last moments of the day always cast the most flattering light upon almost any subject. I was finishing an assignment in a most unappealing industrial area of Honolulu, Sand Island. This area is the site of ocean freight warehousing, oil refineries and holding tanks and industrial baseyards of every description. As I began to drive away, my eye was caught by the emerald colors of the last rays of daylight reflecting off of the glass of the skyscrapers surrounding the Aloha Tower Marketplace across the canal. By the time I retrieved my camera, the clouds had turned a salmon hue which was being reflected in the water. Beauty can be found everywhere...sometimes you simply have to look for it..sometimes it reaches out to you.
