Guess who’s back? Back again? Blog is back. Tell a friend… Once again, I’d like to apologize to all my faithful blog-stalkers for the mini blogging hiatus. It’s been a long, long time since I took a week off from my blog. I had no idea how much that would affect the daily procrastination of...
It was tough but the surfer and the rocks in #21 really stood out for me. Looks like you guys had a great time. The road to Hannah brought back memories. We all got car sick. Did you?
Wow. Those are all amazing! #11 gets my vote.
Love your landscape work its exceptional.
Ok, so I think Hawaii just moved up on the list of places I need to travel to. Gorgeous shots, you guys deserved a great vacation!
What a tough decision! But if I had to choose one, #11 is def my pic(k)! =)
11 and 25 FTW. But if I only get one vote, then….#25.
so happy that you guys got some time off together :). my vote is 25… even though they are all perfect!
hmmmm, my pictures did not look like any of the above when I went to hawaii ;o) #28….(what a coincidence)
13. Holy Moley Tony! I’m not sure where you plan to hang this print, but 13 epitomizes Hawaii to me. I made it the background on my computer with hopes that it will make spring/summer come sooner!
13. Holy Moley Tony! Not sure where this print is going in your house, but 13 seems to epitomize Hawaii. I made it the background on my computer. Anything to help this winter go faster!
#1- I know a lot of people said it before, but I look at it and just exhale. I feel like I’m IN the picture. Very calming and the colors are really pretty.
So, first comment on this wondeful blog… I vote #2, colors and DOF are mazing. The light is also gorgeous.
#7 – I love the rock silhouettes and those clouds are unreal.
I LOVE all of them–#1 is at the top of my list. Mahalo!
#10. Love them all though
14 gets my vote. It is STUNNING!!! I love it. What an amazing vacation.
LOVE #15!
#15, It’s absolutely beautiful!
you and amy look like gods
All beautiful…favorites are 5, 17 & 26
#26 is BEAUTIFUL! By far my favorite…
I vote for #12
Loved all the shots of you and Amy. LOL.
You keep rocking it!! 4,6, 15, 25. All awesome.
#1, 13, and 18. So beautiful Tony!
#2, the colors are amazing and it would look great in a 40×60 on a wall all by itself. A conversational piece if you will.
opps…I meant 1, 14, 24
Don’t think my first post actually made it, but I want to be counted, so I’ll try again: #5.
Number 32 pure and simple
They are all amazing…my favorites are 25, 16, 11, 13 in that order :)
They all look great! 1, 15, 25 are my fav in that order.
28, all day long and twice on Sundays, 28! Stunning shot Tony, motion, stillness, light, shadow, simply amazing.
Wow!! Awesome stuff! Took me this long to decide, but I think I’m pretty sure 17 is my fave! (Or you could frame a lovely picture of you and your wife. Just sayin!)
All amazing of course but #26 and the trees I love!!!
25 It is !!!
Beautiful! Votes are for 11, 25, and 15.
#15 is excellent monochrome, I like 28 also. Makes me want to go to maui….. oh that’s where I am.
Great images. I keep coming back to #20 with the sunset on the palm trees. The runner ups were 3, 7, 11, 15 and 25.
Great pictures, my vote is for # 16
#14 Morning Dew, #25 Afternoon Falls & #1 Evening Bliss
Awesome photos!
I love #1. I’ve never been to Hawaii, but just looking at this post makes me want to go!
The last one of Amy is the one! Ok, my real votes: #1 and #25 because they are both very romantic and captivating. I could probably stare at them for hours! However — #15 is the next one I’m adding to my list of photos from you for my wall whenever I get around to purchasing those old windows from June! I love the detail in that one.
Such decisions! My favorites are 1, 3 and 14 but I think I am going with 14 as my favorite. Glad you & Amy had a fantastic trip – amazing pictures as always!
I wish I knew what color scheme the room is where this picture will go, because all of the pictures are simply exquisite, it’s difficult to choose. I would say #32 is black&white will go well. otherwise, I love #5 for a color shot!
First of all, I am SO jealous you guys went whale watching and actually SAW A WHALE! My vote goes to #12. Amazing.
I have never been to Hawaii, but it feels like I was there now! You captured awesome pics. from sun up to sun down….a well deserved trip to you both. My vote #25!
I love number 11
I love number 1 and 10…all of these are amazing. makes me desperately want to go back to Hawaii.
#15. It’s serene and stunning. It will look amazing printed on canvas!
I vote #20..it’s all natural and exotic.
Hard to choose since they are all so awful, but #2.
7 and 29 are my favorites
25 & 11 are amazing and I think would really look great on a wall i mean a canvas. But I guess its going to seem like a wall with how big you are going!!! Awesome pics my friend. Truely amazing.
27, def 27.
I love #9! That rainbow is incredible!
25 is awesome! (gonna pm you for directions)
All are sick! But Im a big fan of waterfalls
I’m a sucker for waterfalls…#25 (think it would look killer in B&W, just sayin). But I have a special request for you to photoshop Figs and me in there–I’m gonna pose as Kate Austen and he’ll be Sayid…yup, these shots definitely look like you visited some LOST sites. Definitely jealous!
so since i posted my vote on the wrong site- – lol
#15
crossing my fingers… i hope i win! :)
I feel like a kid in a candy store. These are all sweet. If I had to pick one that would go perfect in my house, it would be #5. But the shot that truly makes me feel like I’m IN Hawaii is #1. Absolutely superb!
#18 or 26 are my choices. Great shots!!
shoot. I just spent all this time on a clever post and it got erased somehow.
Basically, I give you my top three choices:
#15
#30
and #7
And indicate my jealousy at Kara being able to invite herself over for a slideshow and pizza.
Love,
Birdie
Lucky! #2 for me. I love it! I would love to go there some day.
#1 for the canvas. Not my favorite, but my favorite for the medium.
I think I meant 12, where the guy is lighting the torch…
2 or 13, but all of them are great! Glad you had some time off to celebrate your 5 yr anniversary. You deserved it!
2, 10, or 11.
each are such pure captures of the natural beauty.
I think 23 is beautiful.
amazing! hard to choose, but i pick 17
I love them all but cast my vote to #21. Looks like a fabulous trip,full of beauty and fun. And love the T-shirt (my daughter went to Eastern)
Picture #15 !!!!!!! They are all beautiful!
I pick number 32..it was so hard…they’re all beautiful!!
5! love it!
number #1! But they’re all amazing! and this is my first comment here, although i’ve been a blog stalker for….a long time :)
I like #2 and I also like #32..not because of the recent whale attack…
looks like your trip was amazing! i pick #27 :-)
#1 because it reminds me of Hawaii and it captures it so well> it would look great as a large canvas. I love 23 & 27, but it would depend on where you end up hanging the canvas.
LOVE all the pictures!! They are fantastic!! Hope you guys had an awesome time!
#1 is my favorite, closely followed by #9!!!
Number 26!
Def 14, 25, and maybe 40 if you don’t mind male dancers on the wall…hehe.
i’ve been scrolling up and down for like 20 minutes…all these photos are amazing!!!!
But i THINK 17, 25 and 26 are my top 3 and if i have to pick just one of those 3…i’d say, 17. i think it captures so much…the clouds, the rocks, the mountains and the ocean.
as always i love seeing your work! looks like you and amy had an amazing time…and how could you not?! it’s hawaii!!
Looks like you had a fabulous time! All the pictures are great!! My favorites are 11,13,32.
I think my favorite is 26 (followed by 20, 5, and 4).
You made our Hawaii pics look like crap!!! :) I vote for #1
# 25 Amazing!
haaaa so hard but I think #32 is the one for me.
So manu beautiful images though!!!!
Btw, I forgot to add, 12 FTW!
#5 is my favorite…but they’re all incredible!
Looks like it was an awesome vacation! :)
#1 is perfect, but #30 is my favorite. Breath-taking pictures! It looks like you had a blast! Hoooraahhhh!
31 is my favorite! love the colors!
Wow those are some awesome photos!!! Makes me want to go back to Hawaii again that’s for sure!
Tony they are all so amazing but if I had to pick I’d say 25, 21, 11, 3, and 5
Definitely #28!!
Hey Tony – I like the looks of #12 – nice comp and cool sky!
# 13 is awesome. great timing!
Hey Tony,
All beauty shots, wow.
I think #2 would look pretty epic at 40×60.
Have a good one.
I think 5, 6, 7 are my faves
they are all sooo good
I like 6 because its dark but serene at the same time! great job as always— hope you guys had a great vacay!
#24. Nice set!
#12 for the win!
#16 and #26 are by far my favorite! you take AMAZING photos!! God has blessed you with a talent to capture His beauty! Thanks for sharing them! :)
I would have to say that either 4 (if you want color) or 26 (for bw) would look great as a canvas print! I’m a long time stalker but I haven’t been bold enough to comment until offered a prize to do so :-)
Congratulations on your five year anniversary!
(Yes, I do feel silly about posting the comment on the wrong entry… maybe this is why I don’t comment much!)
1,5,25 are my favorites. for something to specifically remember hawaii i say 1, but 5 is great just as a picture with endless interpretations/meanings.
#25 is totally awesome!!!
#25, I would love to go see a waterfall some day… maybe when I can walk!
I vote for #4
great pictures! prefect time to go to Hawaii with all the snow here!
I vote #1!
I think #2, 7, and 12 would make for great prints. Never been to Hawaii, but now I want to go more than ever.
Wow these are all amazing! I would vote for #4.
These are amazing! #15 is definitely my favorite!
No. 1- my fav! Great job on all of them!
These photos are AMAZING-no surprise there, ha, ha!!
Umm, hard but I LOVE 2, 11, 15, 23, and 24.
My Favorite I think is #11.
Thanks for the giveaway!! Can’t wait to see who wins!
I vote for #1 or #24. They’re both incredible. I love the colors. Tell Amy she looks so stinking cute in that last photo!
They are all stunning…hard to pick a favorite…number 28
4, 7 and 15 were the ones that stuck out to me, but my vote goes to 15 for sure.
Wow! You can photograph everything! My pick is for #1. But I like them all.
these are amazing, but #2 is my favorite! looks like you had a blast!
#4 is awesome!! One of those pictures a)normal people with a camera could never capture half as beautifully as you did, and b) one of those scenes that you can only get in Hawaii. Absolutely breathtaking. Loved all the pics… they were amazing!!!
Oh man. I have to pick just one?? Ok I pick #1….no #2…erg, ok really #1. They are ALL fantastic. Thanks for sharing and I’m so glad you and Amy got away together. Miss you both!
I’ve got to say that I keep coming back to #1. It is so peaceful, and the colors are great! Fantastic set!
I think #4 would look amazing in a large print!
Great pics! I vote for #4. Great shots!
Mr Hoffer!! Looks like you’ve had yourself an awesome vacation. How do you expect us to pick just one from so many wonderful ones!! :)
Hmmm, 4, 8, 12 or 32. I’d go with 4 :)
Definitely #3… Sweet composition and colors!
love #17.
lovely set of photographs. nice to have some time off :)
These are all GORGEOUS and it was so hard to choose… but I pick #25!
Something about number 29 for me, can’t place my finger on it, but that is my favorite.
Very Nice. My vote is for #2 as well.
Holy crap these are awesome. I’m so freakin jealous, it’s not even funny. There’s like 22 inches of snow on parts of East coast right now, and you get to photograph rainbows and waterfalls. Enjoy your time there.
Glad you were able to get away to such an amazing place. My vote is for #2, just amazing. Love the t/s on that one. #3 is a close second.
TWO. Totally. Love how the coast line looks with the waves in T/S. Also, I’m way jealous you got to see humpback whales.
25!!!! Although I love them all…I am inviting myself over to come look at the rest of the pics you took….slideshow and pizza??? excellent idea!
Looks like you had a fantastic vacation. Glad you got away to celebrate, but I have to say my inner-blog stalker REJOICED with the arrival of a new post :)
And seriously, Mr. Hoffer, you can’t post 41 pictures and expect us to have ONE favorite. I think this is a hard call to make without knowing the colors already existing in whatever room you’re planning to hang this in, but if I have to vote blindly…
Number 3 & 28 are definitely up there for me – probably because they remind me so much of LOST scenery. So I say go with whichever orientation looks best on your empty wall.
Great work. #17
maui no ka oi huh?! remarkably captured. i think it’s def. 30, but am totally enamored by 15 as well. homesickness doubled….thanks.
Looks like you both somewhat enjoyed yourselves. I vote #26, which could have been even better if you had cut down the 3rd tree from the left. Cheers. Ernst
I loved #11. The exposure is wonderful! Is that how it was from the camera or is it an hdr?
My vote is for number 5!
They are all awesome!
#32 is beautiful…definitely my pick! Awesome job as usual Tony!!!
So awesome, I recognized a few of those places, glad you had a great time…now I want to go back!
Great pics Tony! Even though I love of all the beautiful colors and water in the other pics, I think I like #26 the best.
I vote for #3…really, all of these are amazing.
#4 caught my eye, as did #10 and #12.
I’ll vote for… erm… Number 10!
- Matt
#2. Also. Don’t be jealous of me but… I’m going to florida next month. You’re crying aren’t you?
#2 is my vote as well. I’m a sucker for T/S shots :-)
Really, these are sooo good. Mind = Blown.
#1 has my vote. so tranquil, makes me want to jump in the water :O)
Ok…now I realllly want to go to Hawaii. My vote is for #4
I think I like 29 the best…
and I’m so glad you guys got a vacation
Ok..now I realllly want to go to Hawaii. My vote is for #4.
#1. Were the later pics @Polynesian cultural center on Oahu? That’s near Makapuu point, great vista. http://www.welsh-house.net/album/hawaii/panos/makapuu.mov
Def. #28! That picture is surreal!!
whewwww!! glad your back. looks like you had a great time. my vote is #10. :)
#1!
How are we suppose to pick from that lot!? Absolutely amazing set of photographs! #2 would be my vote. Beautiful Tony.
Incredible! It was so hard to pick. But I decided that I would vote on something that I would hang in my house! So my choice is 25! Love it!:)
