A beautiful photo of the Kalalau Valley Overlook from Kokee Park. It is taken in the early morning, when the mystical fog still shrouds the valley and mountains.  Light is beginning to come through the clouds, and will soon reveal the traditional scene of the Kalalau, but for now, it is hidden, and the focus is on the foreground of native Hawaiian foliage. In the distance is an effect you see there - The water in the air, combined with the light, makes a beautiful circular rainbow. Kerry Oda caught this beautifully, centered right over the valley.

This was purchased on Kauai, at the Spouting Horn back in ~2001, directly from Mr Oda, who was quite young and just starting out professionally.  We had a great talk, you could understand his passion for Kauai and its beauty. He signed the photos right there in gold ink. Today, he still captures the beauty and spirit of Kauai, taking his incredible photos on land, air, sea and underwater!

The photos in this listing are of the same photo, but wanted to show the difference in natural light, incandescent light, and white light.

Double bevel-matted, black on outside, fern-green on interior.

I also Have listed another Kerry Oda photograph of a Humpback whale, taken near the surface of the water. Last photo above. These make part of a wonderful grouping of Kauai photos make part of a wonderful grouping of Kauai photos...and great postal savings if you buy both, as shipping is calculated by weight, no added cost.

   

Please ask any questions BEFORE bid or purchase.

We are a Non-Smoking home.

We do have a cat.

Unless stated, spots on photos are glare or reflections of light and/ or color of nearby objects while photographing. I sometimes show photos in different lighting, backgrounds, etc to show a detail or show how the item looks in different lighting, backgrounds, etc.

Photos I have included are part of my description, as a photo can often truly describe better than what is written.


SHIPPING

I offer Combined Shipping. It is based on size (dimensions) of box or pouch etc, its total weight, and, where it's being sent. This seems fairer than 'formulas' I've seen that use total item quantity, using some decreasing %, etc ,and to me, this offers the BUYER the best total price. That said, some items cannot be combined, based on fragility of item(s) and safe arrival to your location, ie - no bowling balls-crystal stemware combinations.

Both Ground Advantage and  Priority (a bit more cost) Shipping are usually offered via USPS - it depends on how quickly you want the item. I also offer Media Mail, if appropriate. And if one of the Flat Rate Boxes/Envelopes work better, that's fine if something is heavy but small and comes in at a lower shipping cost. Because I live on the West Coast, and Shipping Costs vary so much with weight/distance, I offer shipping at Calculated Cost rather than Fixed Price. (unless it's rare exception just mentioned)

I will always try to offer your item(s) at lowest cost to you - as long as the item is safe from damage - unless you specify a more expensive  or different choice.

I will ship same day or next-day from when order/payment is complete - it depends on time I receive Ebay's notice. I have indicated 1-day Service on EBAY's form.  I do allow for 2 day ONLY if weather is a factor (I would write the buyer and explain if possible) -OR-  I've need to leave for day and order came in very late night before.

I will include in my listing, if an item is AVAILABLE FOR LOCAL PICKUP because of size, weight, fragility, value. Or, if it is more convenient for you, and you are nearby, I can meet you in a public place, once paid. Contact me if that works for you. I am in 98092.

I offer returns, IF item is returned in the same condition as it was sent to you.

PRICING

I try to offer the Buyer a good deal, competitively priced (through research and/or checking other similar items listed, and Ebay's Price guide). If you really want item, or think i might take a lower offer (where OR BEST OFFER is available), feel free to offer, there are always counteroffers.

If I have something unique or particularly valuable, I take that into consideration or may have gotten advice from a better authority than myself in pricing.

Most items are comparable to what else is similar online.  However, you will often find some items in my listings that are quite inexpensively priced -Things I know nothing about (and don't want to), things that could be considered nice for a garage sale  or estate sale but would rather do on eBAY.... or because I would love to sell to someone who wants/ can use - and then I no longer have in storage or taking room in my house. WIN/WIN FOR EVERYONE!!!!
