The purpose of this page is to challenge me to open my eyes and truly see the world which surrounds me. So often we trudge though our daily routine, too busy or preoccupied to notice the little miracles happening all around us. I hope to capture, through the lens of a camera, glimpses of my sometimes mundane but glorious little world. I will attempt to post one snapshot each day to share with you. Enjoy!

I had the pleasure to attend a luncheon at the Diamond Head Lighthouse today.  Our gracious host and hostess were the current residents, Coast Guard Rear Admiral Charles Ray and his lovely wife Mrs. Donna Ray.  Of course, we had another glorious sunshiny day, making the self guided tour absolutely spectacular!  Here is a shot of the original Fresnel lens which was manufactured in France specifically for this lighthouse in the Royal Hawaiian territory and installed in 1899.  For more information regarding this historic site visit http://www.lighthousefriends.com/light.asp?ID=140.

  1. That is a really cool looking picture. I didn't know what it was when I saw it but still liked it - love the colors :)
