Description

A shot from down past the Honolulu Aquarium back at Waikiki in the distance. The water was so nice and blue...it was amazing. The pink hotel in the thumb and in the center of the image is the Royal Hawaiian. If I remember the info we got on one of our tour buses it was the first hotel on Waikiki. Not sure if you can see our hotel or not...think it's there, but dunno which one it is. I just submitted a few photos as freebie backgrounds this afternoon, so hopefully in the next day or two you can download those if you're interested. Now to see about packaging some more of them up for something to go up in the MP. *knocks on wood* John (click for full size)

Since you mention backgrounds in the market place, this sort of shot is perfect for compositing. I think you might be on to something John. If you have a variety of images like this, with a wide clear view and a platform to work on... I can easily envision a large yacht in the water, maybe during a party- using this image as the background and as the lightsource.

As a youth, I remember it stood tall as there wasn't as many buildings around it. Times has sure changed. Beautiful capture of this landmark, "The Royal Hawaiian Hotel". Aloha

Actually The Hilton Hawaiian Village was the first Hotel on Waikiki. I can see our Condominium in this picture!! We are Honeymooning there in 14 WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm sooooo excited!!!! This really gets me all excited seeing Waikiki!! I guess Don Ho died last week. I was very sad about this as we have been going to his show every year for the past 12 years & I have several photos with him, one of which I'm going to post in few days as soon as I get a breather!! Thank you so much John for posting these!!! ;o) Aloha, Tamela
