Hula Dreams

This image was taken at the Lantern Festival that occurs every year at Ala Moana Beach Park. The event is shown live internationally. This slow exposure of the hula dancers shows the beauty of hula dance in a unique way.

This photograph was taken from Magic Island near the lagoon area. This is a great place to take sunset photographs from the Island of Oahu, Hawaii.

Na Hoku II Sailboat

This is Na Hoku II sailboat. The boat takes people for short sails for a fee from the Waikiki Beach area of Oahu. The name translates to "The Star."

Wave Break

Here is a photograph with water pouring over the wave breaks after a wave splashed hard against them on the other side. This was taken at the lagoon on Magic Island. Magic Island isn't a piece of land surrounded by water like a real island. Maybe that is why they call it Magic.

Body Boarder Surfing at Sunset

(I am getting settled in at my sister in laws house in Seoul. It is great to be back.)

Getting a Late Start

This body boarder is getting ready to jump in the water in the late evening. Remember that you can click on the image for a larger version at 72 DPI.

The End of a Body Boarder's Ride

Even the best waves come crashing down on the rider. This shot shows the energy and speed the water has as it envelopes its victim.

Boarding at dusk.

The jetty at the end of Kapahulu Street is very popular for the locals as well as visitors to the Waikiki area. Even on low surf days you will find body boarders trying to catch a wave. The other busy body boarding spot is just off of Magic Island located in the Ala Moana Beach Park. This photograph was taken at dusk from Magic Island.
