Grand Canyon of the Pacific

We are having a GREAT time, so good, and don’t take this personally, I decided to play at the Brew with a Crew then blog. We went up to Waimea Canyon for a grand show of light. Being a canyon and being sunset, the sky was much brighter then the bottom of the canyon. We have a number of options to deal with this large, canyonious void of light, split grad and HDR were the two tracks I went for the evening. With RC here coming off finishing the writing of his new HDR book, I went HDR (since I could follow the steps in the highnoon class). Here’s the results, pretty cool. It’s a gorgeous place and as long as you have the light in place, you have the image.
