Every week on Ohau | Justina Blakeney

View from the Waimea Falls Park & Botanical Gardens

I simply acquired again from a trip on Oahu with household. We spent the week on the seashores on  the North Shore, mountaineering up wild hills, consuming from meals vans, enjoying video games and decompressing. We even tried browsing for the primary time.  It was a really mellow journey and nice to reconnect with nature and spend some high quality time with those that I really like. Beneath, some snaps from our walks by the Waimea Falls Park & Botanical Gardens and an extended hike we took.


I’m a *very* gradual hiker, and whereas I hike I take pleasure in making frequent stops to take footage, and go “foraging” for colours, shapes and patterns that encourage my design work. (You possibly can be taught extra about my ‘foraging’ follow in my ‘Jungalow: Adorn Wild’ guide 🙂


On this hike, I collected some fallen foliage and issues. After I acquired again to the resort, I created just a few collages that spotlight the completely different colours, patterns, shapes and textures. The polka-dotted leaves are my favourite! They’re spores on the leaves, that are reproductive constructions (form of like seeds).



In fact, I needed to #facethefoliage whereas I used to be at it…

I hope these images deliver a little bit of pleasure and inspiration to your day. With love,
