Thanks Chris, I'll check out hdrsoft. I think that is the one I tried before.
I love surf shots. Here is one of my favorites.
Thanks Terrence and Christopher!
I have experimented a little with HDR. I guess you can use HDR software (is that what you guys do) or do you use photoshop, align the multiple images then collapse them into one. I'm not a real expert with photoshop.…
Really nice photos Christopher. I'm not sure if it was the same sunset you caught at Magic Island, but nothing beats high clouds for a dramatic sunset. Very interesting technique you used on your Fireboat and Beachwalk photos. Can you elaborate?

- We have decided to change the name of our fish farming system to Oceansphere. We like it better.

Dave Takaki said… - Hi Bill,
I'm new to Techhui. Nice pics. I remember when Pat Takahashi was an evangelist on the approach you seem to be taking. I'd like to talk with you sometime. My interest lies in the lower end of the trophic web. I believe that open ocean ranching and farming will eventually produce the feed inputs for the commercial (your ahi) crops, although phyto-photo-krill-small fish production may be the finished product stream for some future operations.
A hui hou,
Dave Takaki

GB did a great job with these renderings. I can't wait to see the real thing!

- Here are some more frame grabs from our Aquasphere video. GB Hajim did the CG work. He and his team did a great job, on time and on budget!

- Hi Bill. Any thoughts on John's Making it Easier to Cash Out of Startups post? I'm curious what a pro thinks about how an idea like this would affect Hawaii.

- The photo on my page says it all for now. Waiting for patent application to be published before going wide with more info.
