Ke'e Beach • Kauai, Hawaii

Field Edition. Signed, not numbered.

After the blue hour colors were gone, I hung around for sunrise to try a couple of other compositions I liked. Clouds on the horizon blocked the shot I was waiting for, but the sun lit the tops of them and a warm glow came over the whole beach. Such a contrast from how it looked just a little earlier.
