Midnight at Hamoa

Description

This is the first photo where I turned night into day. In this photo of Hamoa Beach in outside of Hana, Maui, you would never know its midnight if it weren’t for the movement of the giant surf. and stars streaks captured in the 10 miniute long exposure. I'd never seen a photo like it anywhere and didn't know it was possible in 1976. It blew my mind. Just finding a night that is calm enough not to move the trees while the picture is being taken is difficult, especially in Hana. Sometimes it would be months before a night would come along that was clear and calm enough during the 3 or 4 nights of full moon to take photos. This was the title photo of the Paradise by Moonlight article in Popular Photography Magazine in 1982.
