On a recent trip to Maui

As some of our stormy and overcast conditions have moved on I headed to the same spot in late September this year as well to capture a similar image at sunrise

and also taking breaks to allow my mind to reset and start new in different areas

For a while I stood in this location and watched it change as the sun went behind the clouds on this early September day

I headed to the back which allowed me to get close to the water

While walking across the hardpan between sand dunes I looked towards the sunrise and noticed how the early light was illuminating the surface. To photograph this contrast I got a little lower and also found a line in the hardpan to bring your eye into the scene and towards the sunlight.
