From a recent (April) trip to Kauai. I just love the flowers over there, very pretty and fragrant. Let me know what you think of these

Taken just after a downpour

The sky in the last one is wonderful. Is that enhanced with CPL or PP?

Some nice shots but a bit over processed/saturated for me.

The color combinations, and composition and framing are very nice... The pastel colors seem to give the captures a slightly "out of focus" look, (as in pic. #2,) and yet upon closer examination, the pic seems to be in focus... #4 is most dramatic and has most interesting composition... Thanks for sharing.
