 “Sunrise” Wailuku, 2023

Working from Maui means I have to start the day early so I can keep my regular hours. How early? Well, it’s a 4-hour time difference, so I’ll begin when it’s still dark out. But that’s okay because I can enjoy the nice Maui sunrises! I think it’s worth it.

The morning goes by pretty quickly actually, and I can end my work day by about 1 pm and have the afternoon to hang out with my family.

Anyway, for this trip, I decided to bring the Olympus E-PL9 and shoot primarily in Toy Camera mode. It’s really fun and it feels like I am just snapping shots with a point and shoot film camera. There’s minimal post-processing which means I save a lot of time (not that I edit for very long with my Fujifilm camera).

I’m excited to shoot snapshots this week!

 “Over SLC” Utah, 2023

Today we flew to Maui. We’ll be working from The Valley Isle for about a week while visiting with family. I’m looking forward to it so much!

Our flight first took us for a short layover in Salt Lake City. I felt so cold just looking at all the snow from the window of the plane. I’m not a cold-weather person, so get me over to Maui!

Well, we arrived at our final destination at about 9pm and went up to the house to relax. Here’s the cool whale shark blanket that’s on the bed. I like the design very much!
