This was an interesting find. Huge sunflower fields on the road to Wailua near the Haleiwa cutoff. It looks like they're about to harvest soon so who knows how long it'll be there. If it's not raining over the weekend I'll probably try this same shot with a sunset behind that mountain. I brought my tripod but forgot the piece that screws into the bottom of the camera, so I had to just rest the camera on the tripod to take this. I won't make that mistake again.
7 exposure HDR created in Photomatix. Used the -2 exposure to correct some halos in the sky. Added a layer for curves, saturation, and applied a light unsharp mask.
