A Bird’s-Eye View of Paradise

Posted on August 17, 2022 by mitchteemley

CaptureMy Featured Blogger this week is Cindy Knoke, photographer extraordinaire, whose images typically emanate from her home, “the Holler,” in rural California (yes, there is such a thing). But in this case, they’re a bird’s-eye view of paradise, namely the Hawaiian island of Moloka’i (“land of abundance”). They’re refreshing just to look at — imagine being there! No human-made environment can match the world we were born into. And few marvels can match the ability of human eyes like Cindy’s to reveal it!

    In addition to stunning landscapes (usually not in aerial views), Cindy Knoke’s blog is replete with photos of flowers and wildlife that any pro could be proud of.

    Since I can’t see myself in a helicopter with the doors removed, these spectacular photos by a gifted—and fearless—photographer are deeply appreciated!

    I love Cindy’s blog! Thanks for sharing it with your readers too. Did you see her blog about the drought’s effect on the waterfalls in Hawaii?

    Fantastic photos; makes me worship our Creator every time I see photos like that. I’ve often thought how great it would be if I could fly like a bird; maybe I should sky-dive–or maybe not! 😀
