The Impending Storm And about three minutes later, I was drenched.I barely got this photo in time. I could see the storm coming across the beach towards us. About 60 seconds after I took this photo, you couldn't even see the islands. The worst part wasn't getting soaked -- it was having to run back to the car in the torrential downfall with all my equipment.

Waikiki at NightAnd during the photowalk, there were many great chances to take photos of the city. It was exciting for me — it was my first time to see the city at night. All the Oahu people were kind of used to it, I assume… But it was also exciting to have them all around.When I set up for these shots during the photowalks, it’s always extra-strange. Because I’m really trying to get a good shot, but I also know that a ton of people are watching me right there. And then I talk through my shot while I’m taking it. And, of course, I NEED to get a good shot… there are so many vectors of attention that it can be a little distracting… but I do my best!- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
