Description
The surf was fairly large this day where I couldn't stand in my typical spot looking through the large blow hole on the reef like in Fiery Sunset. This forced me to scout out a new location to compose for the sunset which led me to setup looking south, down this crack in the lava rock where the water would find its way. Not a very comfortable spot. I was straddling the river of water at about 2 feet off of the ground while hunching over to focus and setup.
The excitement came when the sun began to light up the side of the rock face to the left as well as Mauna Loa in the far distance with some warm hues. Then timing the waves just right to get them crashing, flowing through the crack, and falling into the blow hole was the next challenge which all came together very nicely.
