The Big Kahuna
Today’s image was inspired by Jon Cornforth during our recent trip to the Big Island of Hawai’i. We were at Place of Refuge for a sunset shoot, but the vog was so bad that we never even pulled out our cameras. On our way out, I wanted to snap a picture of the Place of Refuge sign for my trip memory. While I was doing this, Jon snapped a similar portrait of this head using his iPhone. I loved how it looked – so I turned my Lensbaby Composer-equipped Canon 5D Mark II up at the totem and took this image. This guy was part of the park entrance sign along with a few other totems.
