Uploaded: July 17, 2009

Taken at Hokukano Bay House Retreat, Keauhou, Hawaii. There was no color in the sky this day, so I added some.

Superb !! Love da colors and your vertical presentation. #1155610

Fantastic image I really like this but, I do see a problem. If you saved the layers it can be fixed very quickly. Erase the part of the cloud layer that is in the ocean and in front of the land. Even better solution save a copy of the original image on a transparent backround and remove the sky. You can now add any sky picture behind the original with no other editing. #7749919

Aloha Philippe, Robert and Ann,
Thank you so much!

Ah Robert, would that I had not worked past the erased sky version without saving it. Argh. I spent a lot of time putting the clouds into the ocean. But may do another version! And thanks for honest critic! #7750233

Well...I actually LIKE the clouds reflecting on the water. I'd leave 'em there. It's an awesome image, with great DD work. #7751662
