Oahu

I have a pretty fantastic opportunity coming up next month to fly to Honlulu and stay for 8+ days on the company dime. All for the expressed purpose of taking photos for the Hawaii book my company puts out twice a year. That's it, just take photos and call it work. Needless to say, I'm excited! : D

I'm expecting to get a shoot list from our sales rep in the area as well as from our clients but I'm looking to be as prepared as possible. What are the cant miss places to photograph? I will be mostly going for "stock style" images of cityscapes and landscapes but also local life will be good too (first thing that comes to mind is surfers, so if you know a popular surf beach, that would be awesome!)

I've done local shots of this nature both for my company and another local publisher (non-competitor) but those were of areas I either knew very well or knew I could get back to multiple times to get the most unique vantage points.

I will have a rental car the entire time I'm there, so any and all points on the island are open for suggestion and will be staying in Honolulu. Im sure I could be on just that one island, shooting everyday for 2months and not run out of things to shoot so any help pointing me to unique vantage points or even the standard must see views would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance! :thumb
