Hana, Maui, Hawaii
Seven Sacred Pools is the junction where fresh water from the mountain rivers meets the ocean. It is such an incredibly special place, I wanted to ensure I captured the true mood of the location. During the day it is a popular swimming spot but at sunrise and sunset, devoid of the crowds and the noise, it transforms entirely. I had a lot to concentrate on, as I was observing the different forms of the waves as they met, as well as the changing bands of cloud and color on the horizon. The sun illuminated the textures of the rocks and the opposing wave patterns draw the eye into the centre of the shot. By using a vertical composition I knew I would add to the strength of this already powerful image.

Jacob ★★★★★

I hung this above my desk and it genuinely feels like a little window into that moment where the river meets the ocean. The way the fresh water and sea blend in the print is so calming, I catch myself staring at it during work.

Jacob ★★★★★

The colors in this print are perfect—that deep blue where the fresh water mixes with the ocean really pulls you in. I’ve stared at it for five minutes straight and it feels like I can almost hear the waterfall. It’s the closest thing to being back in Hana without the flight.

Christopher Y. ★★★★☆

The mist rolling off the falls makes the whole area feel alive, and the way the hiking path leads you right to where fresh water and ocean collide is exactly as shown. It’s a bit crowded by midday, but the moodiness of the morning light here is worth the early start.
