This is the world's largest outrigger canoe race, which takes place every year on Labor Day weekend.  


Single hull canoes, double hull canoes, and stand up paddleboards raced from Kailua Bay to Honaunau, Lymans, and Casa em Deko.





There were teams from all over the Islands and all over the world, including Singapore, UK, the Netherlands and Canada!











This little dog did a lot of laps in the bay!

Justin proposed to Mary near the Horseshoe Falls on Goat Island... what could be better? 
A beautiful subject at one of the most photographed places in the world – a photog's dream shoot.  



Look at those incredible eyes!









It was close to 90º on this Saturday, but we had a great time running around the Falls.








(sometimes there is just no stopping him)





THANK YOU, Mary & Justin, for letting me use these!  Can't wait for the wedding.

A critic from the LA Times and Gramophone saw this CD and LOVED it, and requested a review copy.

Pamela Ruiter-Feenstra is a master of the Harpsichord, playing music that was written in the mid-1600s.
  The painting on this beautiful instrument was the inspiration for my design and color choices, of which Pamela was thrilled.  
I am overwhelmed that my name appears in her "Special Credits" section!

Night Light Photography

– Night Lights at the Erie County Botanical Gardens –
All photos: L A Promotional Design & Photography

Buffalo Botanical Gardens
*These pictures were taken in mostly darkness, without a tripod or a flash, and virtually no enhancement! 
There was much bending, twisting, breath-holding, and impromptu yoga involved to get the most unusual (200) shots 
– which was a lot of fun – but it is extremely difficult to pick only a few to post here!

It was a 5 degree February evening in South Buffalo, but the warm, colorful glow 
from the other side of the frosty windows was spectacular!  
(This photo would have been Peter's favorite)




The big, beautiful dome is the first room at the Gardens.






So many different views of the waterfall. always changing with the lighting.








Sometimes the shadows and silhouettes were the best part!  (There are plants too)























I am not exactly sure what this is ... possibly me falling out of one of my yoga positions!
