Maui, Hawaii
Waimoku Falls drop over 400 feet down a sheer lava rock wall and is one of the most impressive waterfalls on Maui. The unusual angle as they cascaded out of the mountain made my composition quite difficult, but I loved the many tiered effect and wanted to capture as much height as possible. I framed my shot tightly between the fern covered walls so the water became the main focus, and used the foreground rocks to add perspective, shooting upwards to capture as much of these breathtaking falls as possible.

Scarlett ★★★★★

The 400-foot drop looks even more dramatic in person, with the water practically exploding off the lava rock wall. That unusual cascading angle really does make for a one-of-a-kind composition.

Jason ★★★★★

I’ve hiked all over the island, and this 400-foot drop off the lava wall is something else—the way it fans out mid-air is almost surreal. The photo captures that scale perfectly, making it easy to relive the whole trek.

Samuel ★★★★★

The lava rock wall makes the 400-foot drop feel even more dramatic, and the way the water shoots straight out of the mountain is something you don't see in photos. This one really captures that odd, almost sideways cascade perfectly.
