Kaua'i. From our family vacation in April. C&C, as always, appreciated - would like to hear your thoughts on this one.

Canon 5D2. 24-105/4 @ 45 mm. ISO 100. f/13. 2 exposures of 1/10 and 1/30 s manually blended, and lots of PS work for luminosity and color. Please see LARGER VERSION for best detail. Thanks!

Geez I like this one. The foreground framing is just right IMO, not too much of it. Those vibrant greens in the mid ground and suns rays make this a wonderful shot.

Very impressive light and colors! Is there a CW tilt to the image? It's hard for me to tell.

Is Kauai not the most incredible place? And Hanalei is one of the special places, for sure. Marvelous light and color and it makes me want to be there SO BAD!

The fg branches would be bothering without the light falling on them. You composed a bit out-the-box here and it works nicely.
