I like the subject. Agree with comment below of cutting out the blue sky and picket fence. Although it adds interest in the other 1/2 of the frame.
Would suggest you shoot from below and out slightly to see if you could place the bracket within the corner of the window frame.
Happy Shooting!
Yes it is, from the IAO Valley, looking towards Kahului.
I'll see if I have another below.
I wanted to go to Mama's fish house. We passed it on the way back from Hana. Looked like a great place. Loved the Iao needle park area in from Kahului.
I had heard they generally burn at night, from a helicopter pilot. Nice view of the west part of Maui. I think Kihei is near your sons place.
Like no other place I`ve ever been to.
The weather is like 62 to 88 all the time.
The Photo's were shot with a Sony A55 and A3000, both with standard kit lenses 18-55 and a 50 to 250.
West shores of Maui, first 2 weeks of Feb this year.
The previous viewer is right. Get the sales guy to open your drop box pics n view from various angles. Go with IPS screens and 1600 / 1440 by whatever as a base line. The video card should have a low latency ddr5 or better ram. The lines are changing now so my recommendation is to apply the specs to a name brand line.
I would have tried to reason with the cop. But my experience, has been they are trying to protect the govt entity or themselves from liability. Photographer should have shut up, and made copies available as soon as possible.
Get a ipad3, there are quite a few editing programs for it. I I use drop box to store and PS photo shop to tweak. While not industrial, way more effective than most. An that screen is to die for.
Here are a couple of sunrise pictures from a 2010 Vacation in Hilton Head. I believe a Hurricane was passing just north of us one of the days. End of August, beginning of September. Old camera was a Sony A100, different lens, filters.

I'm sorry I was being lazy and should have gone down the basement to get the old fold out manual. The Full name was, for the Minolta, Bounce Reflector II set. It was a fabric reflector that was collaspable. The white plastic arm or stalk mounted into a clear plastic snap on cover for a number of their flashes. The set was comprised of three pieces just to provide a small "umbrella" if you will, above your flash. The effect especially on close shots is amazing! The Sunpak version almost identical, (Minolta bought), was used on their potato mashers and I believe the 283 shoe mount flash.
Love the falls! Honeymooned there too in 89.
What filters if any do you use / for these shots?
What does it matter? The inference seems to be the picture is of less value than the photo, due to the lack of preparation in the picture. It may indeed be true, however I have shot several jaw dropping shots of stolen kisses just because I was there and I would like to think due to my experience and equipment knowledge got a picture that showed emotions beyond what a staged photo could have achieved.
Does anyone know if either Sunpak or Minolta/Sony still make a stalk flash mounted reflector? I have an old one of each, which I used for a wedding yesterday and was once again blown away at the lighting quality in those shots versus other bounce / direct sources.
Agreed, there is a time an place for any photo image device. But for those of us that want better than "the usual" you need to go big or go home!
