While on Maui I had the opportunity to drive all the way around the south part of the island complete with the back road to Hana then Hana Hwy out. Of course while me saying "Stop! Hold on" to my friends driving. He was the reason I was there and knew I would be doing it. Very very accommodating and awesome. Here are the first three from various points on the road.
And living on the north shore of Kauai I can honestly say that Hana is WET. Was pretty sick of shooting in the rain by the end of my trip there :-P

Very cool, aF. The first to are my favorites. I love the solitary flowering tree in #1 and the light in #2 is excellent. The composition is great in both.
Really love the 1st and 2nd especially, Aaron. The red flowers stand out beautifully from the lush, misty greens in the 1st. And the 2nd is just a delightful colorful scene. Wonderful imagery.
NICE! The last two a killer. I like the first, but I'm not sure about the inclusion of the sky. I think that I would like to see a tighter crop focusing more on the beautiful tree.

Wow - hard time trying to pick a favorite between the first and second images. In the end I do have to favor the amazing varieties of green in that first shot. Your image does a great job of leaving me with a feeling of depth in a lush forest that could easily blend together.
that 2nd shot is cool, but it looks like you put masks on those tress to brighten them up? Maybe my monitor is off, but that shot looks very unnatural to me.
Hi, Aaron. Really like the first two. Love the rainbow trees.
I have been to Hana, taking the main road. When my daughter went, they came in from the back way, and said that it was much more spectacular than the 'Road to Hana'. Hope to get back to try it.
