The weather had been hazy today, maybe VOG, though if so the wind kept it at bay. The day got increasingly cloudy and by sunset the sky turned a multitude of colours. Here are a few of the patterns that appeared.

A (Praying) Mantis in the grass. I was pleased to see this one. It had been lying on some concrete 24 hours earlier looking none to happy. I had moved it to the earth beneath the grass. Assuming that it was the same one, it must be feeling better to have had some strength to climb up the grass.
They are coming thick and fast at the moment. This afternoon’s double rainbow. 🌈
While I was out of action this last week because of a migraine, a few rainbows appeared in the sky which I have not posted here. When my health and tolerance of light due to the migraine allowed me outside, I grabbed shots of some of those rainbows - one (maybe two?) a double. I’m sharing them here. 🌈
Another rainbow from this morning as the sun rose following last night’s showers. 🌈
This morning’s rainbow. This one has lingered for a good hour. 🌈
These two photos capture either end of this morning’s rainbow, which although the ends were visible, there was no join in the middle. 🌈
This evening’s rainbow…just. I caught it just as it faded into the sky behind it. 🌈

The VOG has now gone, but all that volcanic dust in the air sure did produce some beautiful sunsets. This one looking over the West Maui Mountains a couple of evenings ago.

Mural on one side of the Queen Ka’ahumanu Center.
Another rainbow appeared later this morning. Perhaps it is rainbow season? 🌈
This morning’s rainbow 🌈. A double rainbow. They actually arched right across the sky in a perfect arc, but it was raining at the time and I would have got soaked trying to capture that.
I took a while to see this through, but it was worth it.

This morning’s rainbow 🌈
We’ve just finished watching this series on Apple TV+.
This morning’s, faint, rainbow out over the ocean 🌈
I drove home yesterday evening coming down the Haleakala Highway. It affords one a view of the West Maui mountains in front, the south shore to the left and the north shore to the right. On a clear day the island of Molokai is also visible to the north west.
My forth time watching this Studio Ghibli movie, and I still love it. 🍿

On Wednesday of last week there was a new mural on the side of the bunker.

Sorry no new murals on the Bunker today, but I thought to share a couple of other perspectives as to where the Bunker sits on the cliffs.
As the saying goes, I do believe that at times,
A change is as good as a rest.
Around lunchtime today I felt that I needed to clear my head, take a short break. So instead of laying down or just sitting quietly, I took a drive to the cliffs for a walk, and to look out at and take in the ocean - in short to let nature in, in order to shake the cobwebs out of me. While I was there, I also took the opportunity to see if any changes had been made to the Bunker…that was actually another reason why I headed over there.
I’m pleased that I decided to do that. I wasn’t out for long, but I returned feeling refreshed and jumped straight back into things.

I stopped by the Bunker at lunchtime to see if there were any changes. This time just a small update to one of the side panels.
I’m catching up with some images from the weekend. Sunday was a good day for rainbows. Here are a few 🌈

Some artists, or an artist was busy last night. This new mural was on the Bunker as I drove by today. I’ve included a few photographs to show what was created.
