Waterfall on Jeju Do (Largest Korean Island)

Here is a beautiful waterfall found on the Island of Jeju in South Korea. There were more than one waterfall seen along the hike, but this was the largest and prettiest. There is something about waterfalls that will make a long hike worth the effort.

Shopping Cart in Canal

This is an image of a shopping cart in the Ala Wai Canal that separates Waikiki from the rest of Honolulu. The homeless use them to carry their belongings from one place to another. There are others who use the shopping carts to carry their groceries all the home. They then leave the carts in front of where they live, even if it is on the 12th floor of a luxury condo.

Kapahulu Pier Splashes

When the waves are high and angled just right, the water will splash high into the air at the end of the jetty.

Sunset Sail.

This photograph was taken from Magic Island near the lagoon area. This is a great place to take sunset photographs from the Island of Oahu, Hawaii.

Na Hoku II Sailboat

This is Na Hoku II sailboat. The boat takes people for short sails for a fee from the Waikiki Beach area of Oahu. The name translates to "The Star."

Gyeongbok Palace, Seoul Korea

This is a tranquil image of Gyeonbok Palace located in Seoul Korea. The history of this place goes back to 1394 when King Taejo of Chosun built the palace. The buildings on the palace grounds are beautiful and the paint is intricate. It is a must see for anyone visiting Seoul.

The second view shows the cherry blossoms in the early stages of blooming. It is interesting trying to imagine the palace when it was used as the main palace of the Chosun Dynasty.

Wave Break

Here is a photograph with water pouring over the wave breaks after a wave splashed hard against them on the other side. This was taken at the lagoon on Magic Island. Magic Island isn't a piece of land surrounded by water like a real island. Maybe that is why they call it Magic.

Water in Crevice By the Sea

Sometimes you see some real nice natural beauty and want to share with friends only to take a snapshot that no one wants to look at. In other words, you have to see it for yourself. This image may fall short of expectations, but maybe there is enough of the colors to make it a little enjoyable to view.

Water and Rocks

These images need to be viewed in the larger version, and you can do so by clicking on the image. The top of the water and the fish below give a great abstract view of nature. In the next image, the wave hitting the rocks along the shoreline create an image that is interesting. The waves show action, and the rocks show an unwavering stance.
