Panos of Waikiki

Here's two panos I took last night from Waikiki. I'm very excited about them, I think I may need to crop a little off the left side on #1, still deciding. I just got my EF-S 17-55 f/2.8 IS USM in yesterday afternoon. Got a chance to go out in the late evening and take these pictures. I got totally soaked shooting #1 since there's nothing slowing the incoming waves down. After seeing the results, it was well worth it :D

This shot of downtown Waikiki was taken from a walkway that leads out into the water about 100 feet from the beach. It's located in the area of the intersection of Kapahulu Ave & Kalakaua Ave. This shot is a tribute to one I purchased back in 2004 from Steven Noyes. Click here to view Steven's picture. I purchased a copy back in 2004 and have it framed in my kitchen. Click here to view more of Steven's awesome work!
