West Maui From Above

I have always been a fan of Yann Arthus-Bertrand's Earth From Above photography. Billy recently did a helicopter trip over part of the island. He had his camera with him was able to take quite a few photos. While it isn't quite as artistic as Yann's photos, he was able to get some great pictures. Here are some selected photographs when he was flying over the West Maui area. These photos show some of the coastline along Olowalu and points south.

 I like how you can see the reef off of Olowalu in this shot

Olowalu

The Rugged West Maui Mountains are dry in the summer, but green with winter rain.

The West Maui area is connected to the rest of the island via a roadway known as the Pali. Pali is Hawaiian for cliff.

These are just a few of Billy's photos. I will be posting others on the site in the near future. Enjoy!

What awsome photos. Nice job, you can really get lost in them. Too bad Hawaii is so far away from Fort Myers Florida

Those are some nice shots.  They help tell mainlanders why we love living here in Hawaii.

Deanna-Thanks for the compliment. It is worth making the trek from Florida to Maui at least once. There is a reason this is one of the top island destinations in the world.

Randy-I think my brother definitely helped capture the appeal of Maui and Hawaii. It is nice to be able to display them in a nice big format.

Thanks for the compliment Georg. I try to take pride in my online presence.
