The beautiful Akaka Falls State Park in Hilo, Hawaii is home to a 400-foot cascade of water that flows over the edge of the Kolekole Stream into an idyllic blue pool at its base.

This series is inspired by the serenity one can find in nature, and I wanted to use this photo as a tribute to it.

And of course, the main feature of the Sacramento river is the water. As you would expect, since it flows downstreams of numerous mountains, there are many good fishing points. This time I’ve only made a portrait photo…
