An Eternity at the Beach

While spending some time in Hawaii, I determined that it was necessary for me to rent a car for the simple purpose of finding some shorelines with character. After reviewing a few different options on google maps, I chose this location for a sunrise shoot without having visited the location previously (this is a no-no for me - I like to have my composition figured out before I wake up extra early for a photo). I knew the sun would rise in that general direction, but I'll admit that I was lucky in having it rise in line with the rest of the landscape!

 

Recognize the location? It was popularized by the 1953 movie "From Here to Eternity". I only figured that out after taking the photo though.
