This is a remote side of Island of Lana'i that most visitors never see. The Kaunolu Village site is where King Kamehameha I is believed to have had a part-time residence. This drone aerial perspective brings out the rugged and remote beauty of this very special place.
This is, definitely, an aerial shot... but this was taken before anyone had ever heard of a drone. I got this photograph the "old fashioned way". I was hanging out of the side of a full size helicopter for this one. Still one of my favorite images of the incredible Na Pali Coast on Kaua'i.
Ke'e Beach is one of those very special places in Hawaii. The crystal clear waters and the amazing scenery make this a unique beach in a state full of beautiful beaches. This beach also marks the beginning of the amazing Kalalau Trail that winds along the Na Pali Coast.
