Description *** re-uploading this because the position of the watermark bothered me. sorry for the duplicate for all of you watching***
I often don't leave myself enough time when I go on a hike with the intention of photographing. I sometimes forget to allow time to soak in the feeling of a place, to get to know it before photographing it. Waimano didn't let me get away with a rush job. Many people feel that there is a sentience about Hawai'i. I'm one of them. When I'm in the wilderness areas of O'ahu, I often won't be able to accomplish my goals until I reach a sort of epiphany... a way of understanding my behavior that allows me to overcome obstacles. On the way to these falls I got frustrated that things weren't going as quickly as I wished. I was in a hurry. The trail was ambiguous at one point, and I got separated from my hiking partner. I immediately placed blame for my frustration on her, and paced in a huff, waiting for her to return. As I became aware of my own crappy attitude, I began exploring her point of view, and I came to understand that my attitude had contributed to her behavior... I had sewn the seeds of my own frustration. Immediately after this realization, we were reunited, and continued on to this place.
