Hana Panorama

Along the road to Hana there were lots of places to stop and take pictures of the beautiful scenery.


I love this panorama. It has such great color and it shows a great little secluded Maui town.

Maui Sights

I informed my wife before our Maui trip that I would be an annoying photographer. I asked my family to be patient with me as I frequently stopped to take pictures. Now that I look back, I should have put a big yellow sticker on my back that says "MAKES FREQUENT STOPS!" They were very patient and understanding.


One of the days we hung out at the Grand Wilea Beach. It was a beautiful beach with groomed sand (who would have thought they groomed the beaches). This picture originally had a helecopter in the top left-hand corner. Adam Sandler was filming a movie and I snapped a picture of it on one of the passes. When I got home and looked at this picture, I thought it was postcard perfect... except for the helecopter. Fortunately it came out easily.


I thought I would try my hand at some Diptych pictures. A Diptych is two pictures which are not actually connected, but belong together (or look good together). I happen to like this presentation style. It is kind of like a "2 for 1 deal" on pictures.






For some reason, I can't get the one above to load in 600, so sorry it is smaller.

This next set is an attempt at Tilt-shift or in other words, making it look like a mineature or "tiny town".




I love how this one looks like a toy fire truck.


This is the famous "Road to Hana". What a beautiful view.

Maui Sunsets- SOOC

Here are a few sunset pictures SOOC (Straight Out Of Camera). Sorry I don't have time to post-process right now. Basically I sat on this beach for 1 1/2 hours changing my settings and snapping away to get these. It was quite fun.









Here is one that I touched up just a bit (below).

Notice how the reflection has created a star effect on the silhouettes. I love it!

If you click on the pictures, you will be taken to my Flickr account and you can view it in higher resolution to see the details.
