 Well, I know I've said I'd hold off on taking shots of these boats but when the winds are perfectly still, the tide is really low, and there are great clouds in the sky, it's very hard to resist.

I figured instead of trying to duplicate past shots, I would try and take a long exposure from a different angle instead. I liked how it turned out and thought it was different enough from shots I'd entered before.

My (un)Meme entry also came from this morning.

Thanks everyone for taking the time to vote and comment.

Congrats. I just got back from your neck of the woods, well sorta, I was in Kauai for 2 weeks. Such a beautiful place and we're lucky to have a talented photographer like yourself to continually show us glimpses of it in such a skilled fashion.

So very peaceful and beautiful. Similar composition to some other images I've seen here but I can't vote it down for that. It's just too well done.

I would imagine this picture would look amazing if it was bigger (I would love to see the detail in the boats)... too bad this site limits the size.
