A Sunrise and a Waterfall

 
Another vision photograph that I had the opportunity to chase a couple of weeks ago.  Leaving the house and looking up the clouds were certainly promising.  Mentally I gave it a pretty good chance of a fun sunrise.  Of course leaving a few minutes late for sunrise meant driving like crazy up to the falls as the sky started to explode with color.  Wailua Falls is one of the most popular places to visit as it offers easy viewing to a spectacular waterfall.  The key, of course, is getting something different.  For this particular shot that means a slightly altered perspective and crazy light!  Never a bad combo.  Of course this was just the precursor to the ‘real’ goal for the adventure.  But that’s another story for another time 🙂

Point Of No Return

“Point Of No Return”
Lighthouse just off the coast of Lihue, Kauai.  Long exposure under some amazing sunrise light. Having scouted this area prior I knew it had potential.  Guess early morning airport runs are a good thing from time to time to get one motivated to shoot early 🙂
