Description This was shot with a slow shutter speed and flash during the sunrise. I didn't photoshop or alter it. It's extremely difficult to capture a wave during movement in this way, but with the correct settings and flash it is possible.

If you're interested in purchasing any of my wave images, please check out my kickstarter project that is ending very soon. This piece is available in very large print as a reward to the project.

You have been featured in my latest edition of Travel The World: Travel The World Vol. 5 - Hawaii
"The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page."
St. Augustine of Hippo
The world offers so many breathtaking locations and places to see and not everyone is able to visit them in person. With this new feature series I invite you on a journey to discover and enjoy the beauty our planet offers. Let's travel the world!

Hawaii, United States of America, Pacific Ocean

For many of us Hawaii, the 50th state of the USA, is probably still the perfect image of paradise -  with white beaches, palms, flowers and lot of sun. Perhaps you think of the amazing waves which offer wonderful surfing and diving possibilities. Or would you rather visit untouched wilderness, a pulsating city, small villages, learn about the cultural background of the local people? All of this is possible on the eight islands of Hawaii.

I hope you'll enjoy the feature.

The colours are absolutely amazing! How do you take these pictures without getting your camera all wet? I have looked through your website and it's very fascinating!

gokenji In reply to maya-x [2012-09-18 23:29:39 +0000 UTC]

Hi Maya, I actually use a Canon 50D with a fisheye and an SPL Waterhousing. So I'm actually in the water getting the photos. The housing protects my camera, although in the last 3 years my housing has leaked (because I didn't tighten them evenly) and ruined 3 cameras, very costly I may add and insurance does not cover water damage.

Anyways, you can watch how I shoot the waves here: www.gokenji.com/kickstarter

Thanks for the compliment
