This photograph was taken in beautiful Hanalei Valley on Kauai.  It is one of the very first works I created for the project and it continues to be one of my own favorites.  The valley is one mile wide and six miles long.  The Hanalei River flows through it.  Most of the taro grown in Hawaii is grown here.  It is also home to the 917 acre Hanalei National Wildlife Refuge.  Established in 1972, it serves to protect endangered plants and Hawaiian water birds.

Professional framing is available for an additional charge.

This work was created by using an old manual SLR film camera and Kodak Professional High-Speed HIE Black-and-White Infrared Negative Film.  Sadly, the film is no longer being manufactured.  The silver gelatin fiber base print is printed in the traditional darkroom by a master printer with an enlarger, conventional chemistry and trays.  Made by hand, the old fashioned way.  This piece is part of an award-winning series called "A New Discovery".
