Diamond Head, a photo from ハワイ, West

Photographer's Note

From atop Round Top Drive on the island of Oahu is this great view of Diamond Head in the distance, Waikiki to the right and University of Hawaii in the foreground.

"Diamond Head is a volcanic tuff cone on the Hawaiian island of Oʻahu and known to Hawaiians as Lēʻahi. The Hawaiian name is most likely derived from lae plus ʻahi because the shape of the ridge line resembles the shape of a tuna's dorsal fin". 'Wiki'

Hello John Excellent view o Honolulu from above. I like the framing with the trees on both sides and charming little cloud over the mountain.

Best regards Malgo

Hi John,
I have only visited Maui. I would love so much to explore the remeining islands since all of them have their own character and attractions.
This is a spectacular sight, the view so nicely framed with the vegetation on both sides. WE can see the extraordinary shape of the mountain in the distance and a big city next to it. Also the surrounding ocean is visible behing.
You had a wonderful light there and the processing must have emphasized colors and details. The clouds lovely decorate the sky as well.
Wonderful, eye catching effect!
