When I looked at a map of the Hawaiian islands and the enormity of the ocean surrounding it I was astounded. This picture looking out to the horizon illustrates the vastness of the Pacific Ocean and why centuries ago when people did not travel much a population in a given location would think the earth was flat with themselves as the center. In this case they probably envisioned the water going over the edge of the earth like a waterfall.
This photo was taken on the coast of Oahu.
