 I had the great pleasure of meeting up with Cuttooth on my vacation to Maui! He and his friend Mark flew over from Oahu for a day of shooting on Maui. He picked me up at 6 am and then we drove all over the island shooting and looking for scenes to shoot. The wind was blowing a wicked 50 to 60 MPH almost all day. At this location, Mark was set up to my left and he was shooting a different angle. I was behind a big rock cliff hiding from the wind and this shot is one of the results from that shoot. Neither he nor I managed to capture anything really worth much, but with some careful processing, I was able to eek out some colors and details from this image.

It was really great to meet Mark. He's a top ten guy.

Thank you to all who voted and commented.
