Description

I was fortunate to image the Milky Way from the amazingly dark skies on the Hawaiian islands of Kauai and the Big Island at the end of July and beginning of August.

This is the second of a series of images from Kauai where we stayed in Poipu on the southern tip of the island looking out over the Pacific Ocean. This shot was taken from the volcanic rock shore where the waves were crashing and the palm trees swaying in a breeze with a few passing clouds.

Imaged using a Nikon D5300 (full spectrum modified), IDAS HEUIB-II (H-α Enhanced UV IR Blocking) filter, and 14 mm Rokinon lens at F/2.8. Exposure was 20 seconds at ISO-6400.
