Our work looks good up at the #uuflb #watercommunion ceremony yesterday! Thanks to our pastor, Reverend Lee Marie Sanchez, (pictured), for her appreciation and inclusion of my image. It was a special honor to have our work featured on the Orders of Service and I was invited to light our #chalice during the service's welcome portion and share an amazing 20" x 40" giant print of this stunning capture of Mount Otemanu on the main island in Bora Bora. Bora Bora is a 30.55 km2 (12 sq mi) island group in the Leeward group in the western part of the Society Islands of French Polynesia, an overseas collectivity of the French Republic in the Pacific Ocean. The main island, located about 230 kilometres (143 miles) northwest of Papeete, Tahiti, Bora Bora is surrounded by a lagoon and a barrier reef. In the center of the island are the remnants of an extinct volcano rising to two peaks, Mount Pahia and Mount Otemanu, the highest point at 727 metres (2,385 feet). This is one of my favorite all-time shots in my favorite destination to date. The photo was taken while I was standing on the edge of the dock overlooking the magnificent turquoise waters surrounding the Four Seasons private beach. The Four Seasons Resort is located on Point Matira in Bora Bora, which has been voted #3 best beach in the worldβ by U.S. News in 2019, behind Fiji and its neighbor, Tahiti. #borabora #mountotemanu #frenchpolynesia #southpacific #shotsbydubbs #photography #travelphotography #photographerlife #photophilosopher #turquoiseocean #blueocean #clouds #island #dock #sailboats #pointmatira #fourseasonsborabora #fourseasonsboraboraresort (at The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Laguna Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2MhL93nvu1/?igshid=1plgah9d2hw3u
