OT - A few from Maui

I was in Maui last month and spent a week there with my wife. My camera was never too far from reach and here are a few shots that I snapped. Enjoy!

Thanks for all of the comments guys. I have been soo busy I haven't even had time to finish processing pictures from my road trip to Yosemite from back in June, let alone my Maui trip. rommelgin, do you meand Ioa Valley? I did visit there and took a bunch of pics but haven't processed any of them yet (it's on my to-do list though). That needle in the center of the valley was very cool. Processing is pretty complicated and I probably couldn't immitate it again if I had to, lol. Some are HDR (like the sun ray shot), some not. Mostly curves/levels, 50% gray dodge/burn, and stuff like that.

you should sell that first picture to the condo for big $$ so they can use it for advertisements or postcards.

Ah, good memories of Maui It would be nice to sell it to them for big bucks but I rented it from a private owner and seriously doubt he would pay for it. Maybe a trade for a few nights? lol. Crappy weather in Seattle sure it making me miss the warm beaches and sun though.
