Location: Kohala Coast, Big Island, Hawaii
I live on a hill above the ocean, and we often sit outside to watch the sunset. During the last hour before the sun goes down, we usually see a number of pleasure boats and fishing vessels heading for the port of Kawaihae, which is a few miles down the coast from where we live. One evening last week, we spotted this particular sailboat heading toward the harbor much later than the others. It looked a little lonely out on the big ocean all by itself as the sky began to darken.

Serene and surreal all at the same time. Wonderful!

It does look rather lonely. Beautiful pastel colors in that sky. Looks like a storm at the horizon too. Cool!
Very beautiful. The sunset is just lovely. The sailboat looks lonely, but in a tranquil way.

What a view you have--I am jealous.
Do they still hold the magic with so many you must see?
nice shot, Bobbie!! Oh,how I miss Hawaii...I lived in Kauai for over 10 years, and moved just after Hurricane Iniki hit in 1992. I have been wanting to move back ever since...but got stuck in Indonesia....some day I will return.
Cheers,

I've been to Oahu and Maui but never to the Big Island. Your post makes me want to see it soon.
Beautiful photo. lovely mood.

It' such a beautiful peaceful shot.
Yes you are right the boat looks vulnerable under that vast expanse of water and sky. The colours are very subtle and beautiful.
Sailboat, Pacific Ocean, Sun and sky colors.
Beautiful.

Beautiful composition, the colours are just perfect and the boat is the perfect accent. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely the way the horizon almost blends
Fantastic picture. Great composition with the boat and the colors are awesome.
Oh, that is wonderful. I love it. It is so warm.
Thanks to all of this week's SkyWatch visitors for stopping by. I appreciate it.

This looks like a painting. The colors just seem so unreal and then there is that lone boat right in the middle. Love this!
