Kauai in Duotone

Fenton residents indulge in the beautiful island of Kauai

As 2012 comes to and end many of us like to reflect on some of the best moments of the year.  For me that was a trip to Kauai in early November with a group 9 good friends, all residents of Fenton.  We indulged in the beautiful sights, the ocean, and of course the great food and drink.  I highly recommend a visit to this beautiful island.

Kauai is oldest and northern most of the main Hawaiian Islands.  It is lush, tropical, and very beautiful.  It is a quiet island with less of the urban and more of the rural.

Most of the photos we typically see of Hawaii are understandably full of the beautiful saturated colors that are found in the tropics.  I tried to find a different way of showing the beauty of Kauai in a duotone style, which is basically black and white, with 2 colors introduced.  I used  yellows in the highlights and blues in the shadows to get the results that you will see in this set of images.

Would love hear from as many of you as possible on the duotone style.  Are my choices of color good?  Would you rather see this type of image in color or pure black and white?   Are you interested in seeing these images in color on my next post?

If you are interested in seeing more duotones, I have posted 24 of these images on my website: www.ferdworks.com
