Tell us about your photo.

The noonday sun on the water, the backlit blooms, the palms--this will be the single picture (out of hundreds I took) that most brings back memories of Hawai'i and Maui in January. As best I can determine, this picture was taken at or near Hamoa Beach (the GPS in my camera didn't register it).

Tips and Tricks

  • Backlight, backlight, backlight! (when photographing leaves, flowers, etc.)
