Just Another Aloha Friday Sunset

by Peter Liu on July 9, 2010

Last Friday, I took a couple of friends from the mainland with me to shoot the sunset. On the way to Makena Cove, it started raining, so I turned the car around and headed toward North Kihei. We set up and started shooting, but then the clouds decided to follow us and we got sprinkled on there too.

We packed up the gear and called it quits. My friend Meliezza asked me to drop her off at Keawakapu Beach so she could meet up with some friends, so I started heading that way, and noticed that it was dry in that area. The rain clouds must have traveled right through it from Makena to North Kihei.

So we set up again and started shooting. Not the best sunset in my portfolio, but you never know what you’re going to get in the islands. Because the sun was behind the dark clouds most of the time, I was able to slow the shutter and get down low with the tripod to get some good motion in the water.

Happy Aloha Friday…
