The Milky Way from about 13,000 feet up Mauna Kea.
Nighttime on top of Hawaii.
Laser beam from one of the observatories on top of Mauna Kea.
So many stars...
this is what happens when a car drives down the road when you have a long exposure. Note the shooting star almost dead center.
Mauna Kea and stars
Observatories, sunset & Maui (Haleakala) poking through the clouds.
Sun setting into the clouds with Hualalai.
Looks like we're on Mars, right?
Offering by the glacial lake - it's a sacred site for the native Hawaiians, who used to hike 13,000 feet up here to put their children's umbilical cords in the lake.
Glacial puddle (it should be a lake, but climate change...). One of the highest lakes in the world.
An offering.
Probably not an offering...
This massive boulder doesn't look at all like anything around it.
