I love the camera on my iPhone 5 but it just can’t equal what I captured with my eyes…
We usually talk about iPhones here, but today I wanted to focus on our real mission.

Take a close look at this photo I took on my iPhone and you will notice a blue streak coming from the horizon.
This picture cannot produce the full impact of what I saw last night. Curious as to what caused this effect in the night sky I found that the probable cause of this phenomenon is the blockage of the sun by a thundercloud. Since we have been experiencing thunderstorms over Kona this seems to be a reasonable explanation.
After watching thousands of sunsets throughout my years here in Hawaii I have seen almost every hue imaginable. I’ve seen the magnificent Mauna Kea turn bright pink or purple as the sun drops below the horizon.
