Lanai is a world of wonder and fantasy, truly one of the most unique places on earth.  The people living in Lanai City are some of the friendliest people you'll meet.  There are no stop lights on Lanai, no shopping malls, no fast food restaurants, and only one gas station on the island. Lanai is truly the old hometown we all remember and dream about.

I absolutely love exploring the island of Lanai.  The island has an area of approximately 141 square miles with 47 miles of coastline.  Lanai is 13 miles wide and 18 miles long.  With only 30 miles of paved road, Lanai scenery is virtually untouched and absolutely incredible!

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 traditional negative is scanned on a drum scanner to create a 300 megabyte digital file which serves as a vehicle for the tonal balancing, lighting, and darkening that was formerly done in the darkroom.  Once the aesthetic interpretation is realized in the computer and matched with the artist proof print created in the traditional "wet" darkroom, the image is then printed on fully archival silver gelatin fiber base paper.  This piece is part of an award-winning series called "A New Discovery".
