Location
This photograph was taken while I was in Lahaina, Hawaii. I'm a merchant sailor and sometimes am able to grab a few hours ashore to walk around and enjoy the local scenery. Our liberty boat had dropped us off at a local pier and as I walked along the beachfront on the paved pathways, I took this photo.Time
This was taken mid-morning. It takes awhile to get ashore when having to rely on liberty boats from the ship. It was Christmas Eve, 2010.Lighting
Hawaii has great light, even in December.Equipment
