I have been in Maui several times and didn't realize that I was seeing a lighthouse in the Lahaina harbor. This is the oldest lighthouse in the Pacific. A view from the water. My husband wanted to scuba dive so I went with him on the dive boat. December is the beginning of the humpback whale season. Hundreds of them come into the bay around Lahaina and the island of Lanai. One thing I have found with digital cameras is that the shutter is slow. I had 3 humpback whales come up at the same time and do tail flips but I only caught the one on the camera. Another thing we saw in the water was the spinner dolphins. They come out of the water and spin so fast I could never catch one on film.

Lorie, I found this picture in your upload area - you just must have missed it in your excitement to post a picture! Not only three whales, but looks like they were running in formation.........

I knew I could count on you Dave to find those lost whales.

More nice photos. I really like the second photo as I don't have any photos from that direction.
Did you change your avatar to Diamond Head?
I got my best whale shots on a snorkel/dive boat, too.

Thanks for all the nice comments. I did change my avatar to a photo I took of Diamond Head a couple of years ago.
