A week on Ohau | Justina Blakeney

Perspective from the Waimea Falls Park & Botanical Gardens

I just obtained back from a holiday on Oahu with household. We expended the 7 days on the beach locations on  the North Shore, mountaineering up wild hills, ingesting from foods vehicles, taking part in video games and decompressing. We even tried using browsing for the 1st time.  It was a very mellow excursion and excellent to reconnect with character and shell out some excellent time with persons that I love. Beneath, some snaps from our walks via the Waimea Falls Park & Botanical Gardens and a extensive hike we took.


I am a *pretty* sluggish hiker, and while I hike I appreciate generating regular stops to consider images, and go “foraging” for shades, designs and styles that encourage my design do the job. (You can discover a lot more about my ‘foraging’ exercise in my ‘Jungalow: Embellish Wild’ e-book 🙂


On this hike, I gathered some fallen foliage and issues. When I bought back again to the hotel, I created a few collages that spotlight the unique hues, styles, shapes and textures. The polka-dotted leaves are my favored! They are spores on the leaves, which are reproductive constructions (kind of like seeds).



Of course, I had to #facethefoliage while I was at it…

I hope these images bring a bit of pleasure and inspiration to your day. With enjoy,
