Sunset Waves At Makena

March 4, 2010
Sunset Waves at Makena Cove, Maui, Hawaii

I’d totally forgotten about this shoot from a month ago until Dave Bryson, a vacationing photographer whom I’d met on the beach that day, sent this photo of me. I’ve been busy and never got around to actually looking at these shots after downloading them.
This was one of those busy sunsets where the light changed drastically every [...]

Sunday South Maui Sunset

January 31, 2010
South Maui Sunset.

On my way home from the store, I noticed the clouds near the horizon starting to glow a faint red, so I thought it might be worthwhile taking the gear to the beach in case they popped. They didn’t, but it was a nice sunset anyway; the first we’ve had in a while because of [...]

November 23, 2009
Wispy Makena Sunset, Maui, Hawaii.

Twitter and Flickr friend Andy Beal asked me to participate in the launch of a new site he was putting together called Photogler, where photographers could share how they captured and produced some of their best work. I think it’s a fabulous idea!
I enjoy teaching what I know about photography and holding workshops, so I [...]

Makena, Maui in HDR

November 18, 2009
Makena, Maui, Hawaii.

I don’t often shoot in the middle of the day because the light is usually too harsh. If I meter for the highlights, the shadows go black, and if I meter for the shadows, the highlights blow out. I looked out the window yesterday though, and saw some nice colors down toward Makena, along with [...]

Making A Difference For Our Oceans

Green Sea Turtle being Cleaned By Tangs, by Peter Liu Photography

Earlier this year, one of my Green Sea Turtle photos won the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s World Ocean Day Photo Contest on Flickr.
This photo is now part of the Aquarium’s “Take Action” campaign to encourage people to do something good for the oceans; in particular, to support National Ocean Policy.
Let’s all take a moment to think of ways [...]
