New work from the Pacific Northwest

Two really long days, 2 1/2 hours of sleep in 48 hours, but well worth it.

Roger Deakins forum

It's finally back up! This is a great place to learn and ask questions about cinematography. I've spent a lot of time pouring through the information here, then the site was taken down because it was attacked by a hacker. They finally got the site back up, and I highly recommend it.

More Hawaiian landscape

There's really not much to say. This place leaves me speechless. Got up plenty early in Kapalua for the drive over. Didn't try to make the sunrise, so we could get some incredible views and sunlight climbing to 10,000 feet from sea level. Totally worth it. I can't post everything, but here's two. It's actually very quiet here. I expected masses of humanity, but the whole island is just much more low key. Perfect.

One of the observatories tracks EVERY man-made object in space. Something like 8,000 items, satellites, spare parts, etc. There might not be a better place in the world to check out the stars than the top of Haleakala.

By the way, I've had a few emails for wallpaper images. Just send me your screen size and I can fire off a jpeg. It just might take a few days.
