On the Beaches of Maui HI

	On the Beaches of Maui HI Second Place - April 2012 *Nature and Landscapes* With every trip to Maui I leave a little piece of myself behind. The weather, the scenery, the fabulous beaches and the swaying palms provide a beautiful place to holiday and a photographer's dream. © Heather Loewenhardt heatherloewenhardt.c...

Heather, when people say a photo is "postcard-perfect", they are talking about scenes as stunning as this!
Love the composition and pov, and the way the ocean colors change as the water goes from shallow to deep.
WINNER!!!

A place I've never seen, Heather, but I think you've captured the essence of the tropical warmth and beautiful sea and sky here. Inspired use of the palm shadows.
