Did I even spell that right?

I’ve been looking at our pictures from Kauai in Hawaii (since they are such a contrast from looking out the window here)…and of course, since it’s the weekend and I have extra time to kill, I played around with them on Photoshop. These are fun to do, with all of the colors in them. So much different than the snow pictures I’ve been working on lately! I find that the “Saturated Slide Film Effect” makes them look the best. It gives the colors a deeper look. Here’s some that I did today. I have over 500 pictures from that vacation, so you’ll see more in the future!

Here’s one from the Na Pali coast. The view is from 5000 feet up. Amazing, huh? And this picture doesn’t even do it justice:

This is the Kilauea Lighthouse:

This is a sunrise at the beach at our hotel:

I think they called this Secret Falls. We took kayaks down the Wailua River, then hiked a mile into the jungle. Fun!

And something different…someone gave this pedestrian sign a little more character:

This is my husband, soulmate, and best friend, Jeremey.

B&W, High Contrast

Handsome, isn’t he? 🙂 At first, he didn’t really get why I spent so much money on a SLR camera, but now he’s very supportive of my new hobby. Everyone has their toys that they spend some money on! He drives me around sometimes so I can try to get some good shots, and helps me brainstorm other places we can go when it gets warmer. When we went hiking a couple weeks ago, he went down by a stream and took some photos. Here’s the best one, I think it’s a great shot! I jazzed it up a little on Photoshop, of course, but even without the jazzing, it was a good photo.

This was taken by Jeremey:

 I didn’t do anything to the water, but it’s so pretty it almost looks fake. Great picture Jeremey!

And for kicks (get it?), just wanted to add one more. We saw these in Upland I think. You don’t see this very often any more…I like it.  Are those Nikes?!
