Waimea Canyon, Hawaii Photography

Some credit Mark Twain with calling Waimea Canyon the Grand Canyon of the Pacific, but my guidebook, honest to the point of boredom, says he actually never visited Kauai. Oh well, it's still a big hole in the ground. This panoramic image shows the view from the public overlook:

This shot of the canyon is one of my favorites from Kauai. I love the light and dark contrast looking down into the canyon.
