Collecting some of the famous Waterfalls in the World is of course one of my favorite Hobby. For sure I never will see all of them for the rest of my life. If I have the chance to be able to see even one of them in a country where I visit, then my holiday is a perfect one. I just love to hear the sound effects of the water that falls on the ground or right on the stream. It gives me a spirit of well-being and joy for the love of nature. There are many other waterfalls in the state of Hawaii, and one of them is the
AKAKA Wasserfalls which I saw on our way to Hilo is the most popular waterfalls in the Big Island of Hawaii.
It is so fascinating to see because it is surrounded by rain forest. Everything around the waterfalls is green with different kinds of wild plants and trees. A real Tropical wild vegetation. The strolling around the Waterfalls was filled with life. If you are keen observer you can hear this repeated rapid rythmic sounds of the wild birds flying branches to branches courting each other or just enjoying the fruits of the season. I enjoyed taking the pictures too. See my Akaka Waterfalls moving. :-) Akaka Waterfalls in Motion
I wasn´t so lucky enough to take picture of the Rainbow with the Waterfalls with me in coming back home, but anyway a big Pot of souvenirs that reminds me of the Island is more worth than anything else. Who knows but maybe i will be lucky in my fourth visit!
Yes it is my sickness to shoot and shoot everything that moves or anything i like to capture for documentation purposes. My companions are laughing at me because I carry all around my back the heavy equipments i need for photographying. Although too much muscle pains on my shoulder blades when I come home, important is I enjoyed it!
- Pros:Pure adventure in Nature.
- Cons:Rain...rain ...went home with wet Shirts on!
- In a nutshell:A never ending Nature. I love it!
