This collection has a special meaning to me. At the beginning of 2022, I visited the islands of Kauai and Big Island for the first time. I was amazed by how each island has its unique essence; Kauai with its majestic Na Pali coast with narrow valleys, cascading waterfalls, beautiful beaches, and luscious gardens of ferns. And Big Island with the beautiful black sand beaches, a diverse range of flora, and a dramatic volcanic landscape that is active and in a constant cycle of formation and transformation. 
Hiking the Na Pali Coast trail was a fascinating and humbling experience and a memory I will cherish forever. Mahalo Nui Loa, Hawaii
