Sunset in Paradise

Uploaded: January 31, 2006

Description

Taken on Oahu’s North Shore. I forced my husband to stand there for almost an hour as I was admiring and trying to capture the breathtaking dance of the sky, light and colors… As the sun disappeared behind the Kaena Point, I was actually able to expose the photos for fractions of seconds longer to capture the mood of the waves embracing the rocks. The dream trip has ended, the photos linger to remind.
