Location: Waimea, Big Island, Hawaii
It was a sunny day, but the trade winds were blowing, and to borrow a line from Bob Dylan, "You don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows." All the trees in this area lean permanently in one direction due to the prevailing winds. On this day, even the clouds in the sky were pointing the same way.
The photo was taken from Kawaihae Road, the main highway between the up-country ranch town of Waimea and the Kohala Coast on Hawaii's Big Island. We pass by this scene every time we go to the supermarket.

Ah yes - I remember what green looks like! :D We are in drought season here in SW Florida at the moment. Good to see your green hills!

Ha Ha, I can see the trees leaning. That wind must be really persistant.
Such a pretty scene.

Beautifully composed image. WOW
This is a nice comfortable looking photo with the green fields and the building.
@ Tink - I wish you rain!
@ Becky - This spot is in a sort of corridor between mountains, and yes, the wind really rips through here when the trades are blowing.
@ T & S - Thank you.
@ Barbara - Thanks. I liked the color combination at this particular spot.
