The DLWS luck-skill continues as the perfect, perfect weather graced our morning shoot. Heading out to Ha’ena State Park, we arrived in time to greet the day.

There was so much to photograph, from Palm Trees and Napoli Coast to breaking waves and Monk Seals. It was simply, gorgeous.

The angry skies and fierce waves really caught my attention. I’ve been needing just such a photo so I worked the bright spot in teh clouds and followed it with the waves in the foreground. I had waited out into the surf and simply had a great time. All these images were finished using just NX2.

It was a classic Kauain sunset and we just happened to be in the right place at the right time. We went out to Spouting Horn blow hole, a really cool and beautiful place. You can watch outriggers go racing by, sea turtles riding the surf, the sun set and the blow hole explode. It’s simply gorgeous. Here, check it out in a little MooseCam action.

We are having a great time, really great time with some mighty fine and fun participants. We will be putting up dates for our Santa Fe March 2010 event. If you’re interested as these things fill quickly, give the office a call and Sharon will keep you in the loop.

We here on Kauai having just a miserable time in the sun, surf, mai tais and, oh yeah, photographing waterfalls in rainforest canyons. It’s just an awful job, but hey, someone has gotta do it. One of the concepts we work on here at DLWS is understanding what the eye sees, what the camera sees and captures and then melding these two into what you, the viewer of the images sees and is taken by. Color Cast is an important lesson. This photo here of ‘Opeakea Falls is a good example of this. Here you see before the color cast has been removed.

This is the photo after the cast is removed. You might be saying it’s a subtle thing, it is and subtlies when added up make for big drama and then the brass ring you need to grab as you close the digital darkroom.

In scouting for DLWS shoots, the staff took a hike. I wanted to find rainforest and man, did we find it. I’ll blog more about it this week. I’m still on our soul search with the D3x, taking it’s resolving power on the search as I incorporate its amazing information into the information I use in what becomes a photo. I shot this photo composed for B&W. It’s pretty obvious but now, I don’t know. The detail in the leaves on the forest floor really have me intrigued with all the detail that was captured.

Then I look at the B&W and I just love the detail that leaps out in the bark. A new adventure in B&W begins? I’m so confuuuused!
More to ponder in life. Image was finished with a 2sec trip to Nik Silver Efex pro.

The DLWS Staff is back together today and started to work very, very hard in fine tuning our shoots for next week. So after stopping to get a shaved ice, to the sand we headed.

We literally drove to the end of the road, parked and walked the beach. Seriously, here’s the MooseCam, see for yourself.

Had to get out of the office, from behind the computer and start thinking about how I wanted to test the D3x for myself. Looking for detail subjects when everything is covered with snow is a challenge.

I headed up to one of my favorite places and started walking, only to find more and more snow. I then walked back to the truck and looked down at my feet.

While I worked this subject, the leading edge of the storm, which still hasn’t hit, started to sneak over the crest. I didn’t find “the” subject I wanted for my testing, but I find some Moose Cam entertainment for you. Take a look.
