"Sunsets at Tahai" Easter Island Travelogue by sswagner

I chose to photograph the sunset at Tahai several times. Each time, I never got tired of it either. This is a popular place to watch the sun go down, but there is enough room for everyone.

Several moai from this point of view

Of course, I had to try several different angles.

Another day is done on Easter Island

The sky remains colorful, even after the sun has slipped below the ocean.

Sunset at the Tahai complex

Only on Easter Island could it be quite like this.

Low on the horizon at Tahai

The sun remains fairly bright until it is right about even with the water

Moon over Tahai

The moon was out on a couple of the evenings

Stars and moai at Tahai

I brought a tripod and flashlight with me to try and capture the moai and the stars. Truly, it is a memorable experience just to sit back and watch it all.
