Kauai – Hanalei Sunset Pier

Hawaii_P8_4146-Gerry_PacherThe sun was behind a "fat" dark cloud and I was a little bit disappointed about this lost opportunity ... but hope dies last and I got rewarded by a purple mood.

Enjoy the purple mood.

Hawaii – Kauai – Hanalei Sunset Pier

Hawaii_P8_4954-Gerry_Pacher
Hi folks
I want to let everyone know that I'm back from my vacation now. Kauai is really a special exotic destination. Yes, traveling from Europe to Hawaii isn't a short weekend trip but it's really worth. Once you are there you will be rewarded with wonderful impressions which are really unique. So, the pleasant part, having the pleasure and making photographs is over and now starts the real work - post-processing. So, let's start with a first sunset shot "Hanalei Sunset Pier" which I took in Hanalei. The luck was a little bit on my side because the moon was rising to the same time.

Enjoy the sunset.

Regards,

Gerry

A high-key long shutter composition (around 120 sec) of one of the many lighthouses at Ile d'Ouessant. The various shades were created by the heavy tide change and its streaming.

Normandy: Alabaster Coast / Limestone Cliffs

Saint-Valery-en-Caux is a typical French seaside town. The main attraction is of course the high limestone cliffs, laid down in layers with horizontal lines of flints. The striking cliffs are the result of a rough sea which has eroded the limestone over the years.

Ploumanac’h – 30 seconds

I was amazed by the pink granit rocks around the Ploumanac'h Lighthouse. I photographed this scene long after sunset during high tide. That's why a long exposure of 30 seconds was required.  The B&W development even intensified the structure of the pink granit. 
Some technical information:
- Canon 1ds Mark III
- Canon 24-70mm f2.8 (at 24mm)
- ISO 100
- 30 sec
- f18
- developed in Lightroom 2.2

Ohh - I like this area so much, that I'm considering to go back again. Beside the interesting scenery the weather conditions are changing all the time which makes it even more interesting to photograph the same scene again and again.

- Canon 24-70mm f2.8 (at 38mm)
- ISO 100

Enjoy the rock garden.
