This weeks Photo Hunt Topic is “Skinny”
This photo of the two “Skinny” palm trees was taken across the street of the 4,000 acre, magnificent Kualoa horse ranch on the Island of Oahu(Hawaii). The ranch has been the site of many movies including “Jerrasic Park”, “King Kong” and the series “Lost”.
The mountain range is really spectacular with the beaches only getting better.
The ranch is located on the north shore of Oahu and is very peaceful compared to the hustle and bustle of Honolulu and Waikiki.
One thing I would also like to point out is that in Japanese Oahu is pronounced “o-af” and is spelt オアフ very confusing at first….
I have placed the original full resolution photos on my .Mac site if you are interested. Either select the photo or this link to access the full resolution photo.

Photo Hunt - Skinny, Usui…
If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!This weeks theme in The Photo Hunt is Skinny or Usui (うすい) in Japanese as a loose translation. Usui actually translates to thin and this was as close as i could…
Those are definitely skinny trees!
Oh such a beautiful photo!!! Nothing can beat palm trees…there’s just something about them —the romance of it all I think.
My skinny photo is published now, would you care to visit with me? I’d love to have you drop by!!
A very dramatic picture, with the wind blowing like that. Wonderful!
Welcome to the Photo Hunt
