Day 170

My only “successful”panorama of Wainiha Bay.  It is made from six photos, as I recall, and it didn’t line up well when I stitched them together in Elements.  Part of that is because the waves kept changing position (rolling in!) as I took the shots.  Darn waves.  So the horizon isn’t straight, but it is […]

Day 169: Back on the Beach!

Wainiha Beach, near Hanalei. Looking back towards Princeville in the distance, Hanalei is just around the near by point. Rocks on the shore. And the waves washing up on them. … … The Dailylife Wife hard at work, photographing. Looking up! There is that Hong Kong Sunrise again… The Dailylife Venus… …rising from the waves! […]

Day 168: Back to Kauai!

This is the Spouting Horn in Kukui’ula. As the waves roll up to the shore, water is forced into lave tubes and is squirted out with weird noises. It is pretty impressive. There was a bigger one.  It threw water a hundred feet up or so.  A plantation owner dynamited it because it blew salt […]

Day 167

Tripping the light fantastic with a Franklin Gull! (1/6000s f/6.7 ISO500 400mm -1 stop) He was actually flying into the wind, and not really moving.  He just kept running on the water. (1/6000s f/6.7 ISO500 400mm -1 stop)    (1/4000s f/6.7 ISO500 400mm -1 stop) (1/4000s f/6.7 ISO500 400mm)   (1/8000s f/6.7 ISO500 400mm -1 […]

Day 166

Franklin Gulls, down at Giant Springs State Park. Take off! (1/4000s f/8.0 ISO500 400mm -1 stop) (1/4000s f/8.0 ISO500 400mm -1 stop) (1/4000s f/8.0 ISO500 400mm -1 stop) ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 165: Glacier National Park!

I was hoping the Going to the Sun Highway over Logan Pass would be open, but they delayed it a couple of days.  Lake McDonald was nice, however!  (1/90s f/13.0 ISO100 28mm -1/2 stop) (1/180s f/13.0 ISO100 75mm -1/2 stop) ~Curtis in Glacier National Park! {!-{>

Day 164

Coming back from my trip to Kalispell yesterday I found a few Mountain Goats above Goat Lick, US Hwy2, in the section in Glacier National Park. (1/1500s f/5.6 ISO800 400mm)  “Can you hear me now?” (cropped from the photo above) (1/500s f/5.6 ISO500 400mm) (1/750s f/5.6 ISO500 400mm) (1/1000s f/5.6 ISO800 400mm) (1/750s f/5.6 ISO800 […]

Day 163: Living the dream…

Back before I was born, oh so long ago, Mom and the other chil’n (as I heard it) gave the Dailylife Pappy (to be!) a 1931 Model A Coupe.  It was not in the best of shape, but my sister got to drive it all over, and my brother got to drive it all over, […]

3D Civil War Photos!

Pretty neat!  From the Library of Congress.   Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Cap’t Andy’s Cruise! Aftermath…

I guess we had too good of time out there on Cap’t Andy’s boat.  When we got back to shore there was no power.  A blackout covered about half of the Island of Kauai.  It is very strange to see McDonalds shut down at 9pm… We had to drive back to Lihue, about 20 miles, […]
