Hawai'i has one native hawk, the Io. These mid-size raptors figure a large place in Hawaiian culture. They are one of the aumakuas - animals, fish or birds that are considered to be manifestations of ancestors. Your aumukua will watch over you and warn you of danger. Families have one or more aumakuas and protect these creatures at all costs. I watched this io strike a spotted dove mid-air, then go to a palm and wait to see if it was safe to claim its prize. Did not have a camera when I saw the strike, but went to get one. The io was still in the tree, deciding whether or not to claim his prey.
As a fine-art photographer of many years (initially in black and white large format film), my purpose is to capture and share the incredible beauty in our world. I have a passion for travel and photographing the many places I have been fortunate to explore. I am enthralled by both the grand scene of a live volcano or brilliant sunrise and the amazing detail and design of each tiny part of a flower. There is beauty and design in everything around us and the goal of my work is to share that and encourage everyone to look closely and take the time to see what is before us all.
