Description
AlooooooooHa!
Sunrise is almost full swing, I turn my camera towards the opposite direction down the beach, from my post yesterday. This is the view from almost the center of the beach. I would guesstimate the beach is 3/4 of a mile long, give or take a few hundred yards.
The surfers had not arrived yet, and Sharky and I pretty much had the beach and view to ourselves. If you ever come to the Big Island, this beach area is a must see...If you got a good buddy like Sharky that might want to go down there...Once again you have to have a 4 wheel drive truck to get down a very steep and narrow road way..if you can call it that. On one side of the road the mountain, on the other side a shear drop of hundreds of feet to certain death.
Thanks for you comments on my last post "Waipio Valley Sunrise" and have an excellent weekend everyone! Aloha!

Wow! You making me want to go back down there again. Just beautiful my friend. Water World landed in the right spot. Excellent photography. Aloha
There is a thead on the photog forum about comments and criticism. For this image, I see nothing to add and no criticism to provide. Wonderful image. Thanks.
Hey Dave, I see you've started using the old 180 trick with incredible results.
very lovely looking. Have you took any photos of a shear drop of hundreds of feet to certain death. Just wondering lol watch yourselfs
Such a lovely place and shot, just amazing.
Beautiful. I love this. THe beach is just such a great place. Wish I was close enough to use it as my studio from time to time.
Amazing photography. Th road you mention reminds me of the ast time I was on Maui, I had this briliant idea that road to Hana was too commercial and overdone, so I decided to drive the west side of the island. I don't think I dared to look up or down most of the way around.
This is awe inspiring Dave !!!!!! I can't imagine surfers though it seems so smooth & still!!!!! Gorgeous place to be with a dear friend on such a beautiful morning!!!!!!!!! Mahalo & Aloha!!!!!

I really like the subdued tone of color and light in this image. Gentle, serene, and peaceful is my impression. A beautiful image.
