Picture of the day - April 24, 2006

Hang Gliding On Maui

Hang gliding on Maui

Today's beautiful picture was taken by Kalani Prince who gives us the following story behind the image:
    "At the 8000 foot mark on Maui you will find paragliders taking flight.
    This shot was taken after about three weeks of solid rain on Maui,
    (very rare). I called my friend Nick to see if he wanted to join me
    in some upcountry picture taking and he agreed. Three hours later,
    this shot presented itself in all it's glory.

    It's pretty wild when you are actually in the clouds taking pictures
    of a setting sun, very surreal. Anyhow, this paraglider was just too
    picturesque not to capture."
I must agree with Kalani - this really is a picturesque scene. Like most people, when I think of Maui (or any of the Hawaiian islands for that matter), I think of tropical winds, palm trees and magnificent sandy beaches. It never occurred to me that you could visit a tropical island paradise for a hang gliding adventure!
