Description
This was taken from Kula'ila'i beach ("Pray for sex") looking toward Makua Valley with the sunset at my back. I'm the silhouette in the foreground on your right. At the base of the rainbow on the left is a photographer taking photos for a customer. What a blessing for all of us.
Makua Valley is located on Oahu's leeward (west) coast on the foothills of the Waianae Mountains. The valley is spoken about prominently in Hawaiian tales, myth and music. The word Makua means parent in the Hawaiian language, and legend has it that Makua Valley was the place where man was first created. Conversely, Hawaiians consider the valley to be the point from where souls depart for an afterlife once the human form has been cast off. It is for this reason that one can see many handmade memorials to the dead along the rocky cliffs lining the shore.
