Watercress Farm


Considering that this photo was taken while driving down Kamehameha Highway at around 35 MPR (~56 KPR) it turned out ok, pretty good even ... don't you think?

I love this spot in Pearl City. Yep, in the middle of the city sits the tranquil little watercress farm. Just to illustrate - the parking garage you can see in the upper right corner is to a popular shopping mall called Pearl Ridge.

With the grass shack and coconut trees, it looks like it belongs on a disserted island some where lost in the pacific. It’s just so unexpected, that when you come upon it, you just have to appreciate it.

  2. I does look very tranquil, great photo, I wouldn't even notice on the first glance, the parking garage if you didn't mention it.
    Have a fun weekend.

  4. I'm surprised the menehunes did not try to take your camera away - nice shot - this place has been around for as long as I've known as a child!!!

  6. If you hadn't pointed out the parking garage, I would have assumed this was a little more rural. I like that little hut.
