Green and Blue = Bliss

Aloha dGrinners!

We've had a pretty surprising amount of rain over the past month, which certainly did its share of damage. But not all was bad, as what is typically a brown and yellow grassy coastal desert is currently a lush green wonderland! The water is a beautiful blue with a bit of green in the shallows, and the weather is 85° and sunny.

This time of year is 'chill mode' for most, while we enjoy a slight dip in tourism, which means less crowded beaches, snorkel/surf spots, and of course, most importantly, less crowded schedules. I've been taking advantage of the free time to play with the new drone, using the telephoto zoom feature to create high detail wide photos. These are some favorites from the weekend. Enjoy the view!

I can't tell you, JonaBeth, how much I enjoy your Hawaii work. And that's not just for the spectacular scenes you capture....and that are seldom seen anywhere else....but also for the vicarious kick I get from riding along as you develop and enhance your drone photography.

Big thank you everyone, for the encouragement! I really love this forum, and the fact that advice comes freely to those who take it into account. I've learned a ton watching all of you, so really each and every one of you plays a role in every image I produce!
