I created this work while exploring the Waianapanapa State Park area on the island of Maui.  The flourishing rain forests and waterfalls are spectacular along the eastern coastline.  I had to work quickly as it started to rain.  Luckily, the jungle canopy was so dense, it sheltered my camera and I briefly from the rain drops and I was able to continue photographing this beautiful region.

Professional framing is available for an additional charge.

This work was created by using an old manual SLR film camera and Kodak Professional High-Speed HIE Black-and-White Infrared Negative Film.  Sadly, the film is no longer being manufactured.  The traditional negative is scanned on a drum scanner to create a 300 megabyte digital file which serves as a vehicle for the color balancing, lighting, and darkening that was formerly done in the darkroom.  Once the aesthetic interpretation is realized in the computer and matched with the artist proof print created in the traditional "wet" darkroom, the image is then printed on fully archival paper.  This piece is part of an award-winning series called "A New Discovery".
