Na Pali - John on the Beach

At last, the jungle! It was worth the wait.
When I bought the long narrow block of paper I though I would do horizontal panoramas. But everything about the Na Pali coast is vertical. What no photo or painting can ever convey is scale. The size of those cliffs rising from the ocean is phenomenal and the vastness of the sea is breathtaking. I could see the curve of the earth! Being a native of Oregon, John is just stupefied by warmth in February.
