clouds over the mountainThis photo was taken in Maui, Hawaii. We are out on the water because we were whale watching on a boat. I choose the picture because it gives you a view of the mountains being the clouds. To edit this I used curves and brightness to brighten it up. I also used exposure to make the colors pop more.
green everywherecanyonThis was taken at a canyon in Kauai, Hawaii. It's almost like the Grand Canyon, but much, much smaller. I chose these pictures because theres lots of color in them. For the edited picture I decided to try a darker oil painting. It made the picture look like it was taken at night, even though it was taken in the daytime.
miles of waterout in the distanceThese pictures were taken in Kauai as well. This is the highest point of the island and give you a really nice view. On one side you get the view of the ocean. On the other side if you turn around you get a view of the canyons. (which I pictured above) It was difficult to get really god pictures because there were bushes and plants in the way,

sunset in the distancesticking outThis photo was also taken in Maui, but on the totally different part. we hiked up a mini trail to get a view of this "needle" at one of Maui's state parks. This "needle" was used for war back in the day. I added a lighter oil painting to this with similar color so it would look good. I also used the grain to give it a good look.
lit at nightgrainy sunsetThese were taken at sunset at our hotel in Kauai. I chose this because it's cool that all the rocks are black and then it goes off into the ocean. The oil painting I added made the sunset more orange. It also made the bush more green and the rocks less back. It was hard because I didn't know if I wanted to edit it to make the bush more green or to get rid of the green bush.
