Volume No.3 -- Post No. 16 Micronesia

I just got home from the Federated States of Micronesia.  I was only there for three days, and had to work most of the time, but I did have time to crack these snaps!

Blue Lagoon Resort on Chuuk.  The coral grows fast in Micronesia so the sea is shallow for at least half a mile out.  Makes for warm glassy water.

Same lagoon at night.  (30 second exposure).

Had an important meeting on Pohnpei.  Made my taxi driver, Henry, stop as we passed this lookout on the way back to airport.  Amazing.  This was at around 11 am.  The daily weather reminds me of the Louisiana coast.  The sun will disappear behind low clouds and by 4 pm it will be pouring (daily).
