Two recent ones (Oahu, Hawaii)

Hardly went out to shoot for the past 6 months but these were taken recently from a beach park near where I live.

Very nice shots.

FYI there's a dust dot in #2 near the sun in the cloud.

Nice work Ben. Lovely colors I must say. :) The only thing I would fix is the barrel distortion. :)

#1 is great with the golden tone

[lostid]

Thanks to all.

[mtwork]

What caused you to have the rocks as bottom framers for the image?

what beach is this?? if i may ask. Kakaako Park

What caused you to have the rocks as bottom framers for the image? Because there was no other foreground objects. easy choice. :)

I feel your pain. Seems like as soon as school started back, my camera hasn't been touched. I went to Kaua'i for 2 weeks during Xmas break and took almost 1000 pictures. Of course, as soon as school started back, I rarely touch my equipment. Sigh....
...the distortions drive me nuts and I have been unsuccessful correcting them.
You should consider getting PTLens. It's quite cheap and corrects all types of distortions and aberrations. I think a license is $25.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks John. I will try PTLens. I want to see your shots from Kauai. :)

Here are a few of the panoramics I've assembled and some shots. The first 3 panoramics are from Diamondhead (one of your favorite haunts). Also, some are unedited, particularly the night shots. Hopefully not too much repetition.

Great shots John, especially the Hanalei Valley Sunrise. I need to get there and shoot.:)

BTW, I tried PTLens and it works great. Thanks for the info.

If you get this before 530-6, go catch sunset tonight. It's going to be an incredible one!
