Waimea Bay
and beach are a world famous landmark and its giant wintertime waves
are some of the most powerful on earth, generated by far distant North
Pacific Ocean storms during the winter months (Sept-March). They are an
incredible example of the ocean's mightiness. It is also home of the
Eddie Aikau Memorial big wave surfing contest held only when the waves
are at least 25 feet high. Native Hawaiians, surfers, and a lot of
oriental people consider these magnificent waves to be a supreme example
of power and manifested with the spirit of mother nature. To actually
see these massive wintertime waves at the point being ridden by surfers
and breaking along the shoreline is an awesome, humbling, and
unforgettable experience. In the summer time when it is usually calm it
is one of the most beautiful and pristine beaches on Oahu for
sunbathing, and swimming.
PRINT
INFORMATION: Most of our prints are sharper than many of the lower
resolution samples seen here. Please be aware that many of the older
original images were not high quality and may be grainy or have some
visible flaws. All mounted 8x10" prints are shrink-wrapped and come with
a detailed caption label on the back, (or separate with unmounted
photos), with several paragraphs of interesting detailed historical and
photography information. This makes our prints different from other
sellers and very popular with buyers.
Mounted prints are cropped to fit on a single 8x10" mat board and are
not double matted cut-outs. Margins and borders are edges of the print,
or the color of the mat. We print on long lasting lithographic, giclee
professional glossy or mat paper using archival inks, or real
photographic paper. Some prints are from black and white or hand
colored originals, others have been ©colorized by our artist. If you
