 est score - 6.4
dream score 6.9

severe vertigo, was it worth it?.... hell yeh, what a view!

After notes - OK not moaning but I totally missed rollover, I am in Hawaii right now and I got used to rollover being at 5AM in UK and lost track of time and forgot to pull this shot, but that's life, Im very happy with the result seeing as this is just RAW tonemapped with no other editing LOL... oh well, I'll be back in UK 13th so it wont happen again.

What a great location. Think you captured the awe of the place, and as usual I'm sure it's even better in person.

Those colors are absolutely stunning; this makes me want to visit this place. The HDR effect is a bit overdone for my taste.

looks too overprocessed. The sky looks alright but the water and land look grainy.

Lovely setting and composition. I like the dramatic sky. But IMO, from the horizon down, the post processing is too intense for me.
