garcia_vega Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 http://www.freephoto-i.net/users/garcia_vega/sunset2.jpg'> remember back in the day there was a thread about who could post the best sunset, well i didn't have a scanner back then, but now i've come back with a scanner and an unstoppable sunset. i promise, i took this with a throwaway walgreen's camera and there has been no digital manipulation to the pic at all other than changing the size to make it load quicker. this is kalaupapa (yes, the leper colony) molokai, hawaii.

garcia_vega Posted April 8, 2002 Author Share Posted April 8, 2002 Originally posted by d-town_bomber im sorry to say this but it does look photoshoped by my eye.... i realize it looks photoshopped--but it seriously has not been touched. if you go to hawaii you'll see i'm not faking. walgreens throwaway camera, developed at walgreens 1 hour photo. no auto levels, no curves, no brightness/contrast, no color balance, no hue/saturation, nothin. thats how it really looks. and i guess i'll have to share the sunset championship with the others who posted in this thread cause those are some nice shots to. i like ese's a lot.

garcia_vega Posted April 10, 2002 Author Share Posted April 10, 2002 man--now somebody who's actually from hawaii is doubting the authenticity of my picture? this is ridiculous. IT IS NOT PHOTOSHOPPED DAMMIT!!! i admit it was a rare sunset, even my dad who's 48 and never left hawaii once in his entire life said it was one of the best he'd ever seen. plus, most people aren't even allowed down in kalaupapa at night. the only reason i got that flick is cause my great uncle has hanson's disease and lives in the settlement, so i can get permission to stay down there. sometimes nature is better than photoshop. and platapie, that pic is from a couple summers ago. half my family lives on molokai so i get out there now and then.
