I really like this photo, because of how green the gate is against the park. It runs down the entire picture and though it is not perfectly aligned, I find it interesting and different.

The clouds in this picture stunned me. Ialso think sculpture is brilliant. I am currently reading the agony and the ecstasy, and at one point Michelangelo says, "the painter laid his paint on a flat surface and by use of perspective tried to persuade people that they were seeing the whole of a scene. But just try to walk around a person in a painting, or around a tree! It was an illusion, a magician's trick. Now the sculptor, ah! he carved the full reality. That was why sculpture bore the same relationship to painting that truth did to falsehood. And if a painter blundered, what did he do? He patched and repaired and covered over with another layer of paint. The sculptor on the contrary had to see within the marble the form that it held. He could not glue back broken parts. That was why there were no more sculptors today, because it took a thousand time more accuracy of judgment and vision."

Nothing can turn around a day like the sight of a rainbow

He aloha no 'o Maunaleo
I lohia e ke kilihuna
Kohu 'ahu 'ao no ka uka
He kamalani kamaehu kau i ka hano e
He kamalei, kamahiwa pa i ka lani e
Ka lani e

Po'ohina i ka 'ohu kolo
Kahiko no ka poli 'olu
Apo 'ia e na kualono
He hi'ina, hi'ialo, aloha e
Hi'ipoli, hi'ilei, hi'ilani e
Hi'ilani e

Eia ku'u lei aloha
No Maunaleo i ka nani
'Ohu'ohu i ka Maile
He kamalani, kamaehu kau i ka hano e
He kamalei, kamahiwa pa i ka lani e
Ka lani e

No Maunaleo ke aloha ku i ka la'i e
Aloha e, aloha e
