A slice of Waimea Falls on the north side of the Hawaiian island of Oahu. The long exposure helped blur the water as it poured over the volcanic rock. I was drawn to the juxtaposition of the main falls and the small rivulet on the left carving its own path down the cliff.
Waimea Falls
After an awesome sunset and sunrise, we decided to hike to Waimea Falls. People are aloud to swim here, (with life vests) The Big Stopper came in handy to get rid of them in Long Exposures. Here is one of my favorites from here. Processed this with Nik's Silver Efex Pro 2

I swear it gets better  I want to go back here and camp on this stretch of shore for a month. It was just incredible and to top it off so was the sunset and sunrise.

So tags work, would this be the same concept as Google+ then?
*Hawaiian Sunrise*
Now that was a trip! Hard to believe I came back, but I guess had to at some point. Thanks Cole Yamane for showing me around this epic island. We barely stopped shooting the whole 9 days but it was worth it. It was great seeing and meeting Dallas Nagata White, Tom Anderson, Ed White and even Karen Hutton was there! 

Now on to my favorite 12 hours, near the end of the trip. We headed out to North Shore to shoot underwater and hopefully find turtles. Then camped here at Ka'ena Point which gets the sunset and sunrise all at one location. Lets just say we got incredibly lucky, with too much color for both sunrise and sunset! I definitely could spend a month on this mile stretch, it's insane. Here is a shot from sunrise. Now I gotta get back to processing more and more sleep.

One shot.

If you were on Oahu this past Saturday you would have remembered how epic sunset was, it just blew up! I happened to be in a prime location. That usually doesn't happen!
Beautifully clear and inviting waters of Kauai. I love the colors exhibited in the sky and water.
