Watch the Sun Drop into an Island – while you’re on an island

Here’s a horizon view of Molokini island – a popular snorkeling spot right off Maui’s coast – that you rarely see. Even rarer still is this perfect combination of time of year (determining where the sun is on the horizon), time of day, and weather conditions (clear sky, no clouds nearby) for what I think is one of the most dramatic shots of Molokini I’ve seen.   Put this on on your desktop!

Big Mahalo to James Buehler!

Photos from our subscribers, especially amateur ones, are my favorites because they illustrate how incredibly beautiful Hawaii is and anyone with a phone can take stunning shots. Mahala James for sharing!
