There is only one stop we wanted to make when we departed Hana to return to the more populated parts of Maui. We enjoyed the scenery at Ke’anae Peninsula so much on the way to Hana, that we wanted to spend time there on the. return trip. We also need to stop at Aunty Sandy’s Banana Bread to stock up for the next few days.
This image is a 20 second exposure using a variable neutral density filter. I set it for 8 stops to get the 20 second exposure. This extended exposure turned the white waves into a nice mist.

This is where we ate our afternoon snack on the return trip from Hana. The star of our snack was from Aunty Sandy’s Banana Bread.
People travel to Sedona, AZ, to experience the mysterious cosmic forces that are said to emanate from the red rocks. I have visited the Sedona vortexes, and the crashing surf Ke’anae Peninsula is way more conducive to healing, meditation and self-exploration than any vortex.
Plus the Ke’anae Peninsula has great banana bread.

I am not sure where this sea arch is located. It is somewhere between Hāna Bay Beach Park and Ke’anae Peninsula. I know it is not the arch at Waiʻānapanapa State Park. I think it is along the trail from Hāna Bay Beach Park to Kaihalulu Red Sand Beach, but I would not swear to that. This is the day I forgot to attach my GPS to my camera, so the actual location is beyond me.
