  • Photographing the Islands of Hawaii
    Molokai Sea Cliffs - Molokai, Hawaii Photographing the Islands of Hawaii by E.J. Peiker Introduction to the Hawaiian Islands The Hawaiian Islands are an archipelago of eight primary islands and many atolls that extend for 1600 miles in the central Pacific Ocean. The larger and inhabited islands are what we commonly refer to as Hawaii, the 50 th State of the United States of America. The main islands, from east to west, are comprised of the Island of Hawaii (also known as the Big Island), Maui, Kahoolawe, Molokai, Lanai, Oahu, Kauai, and Niihau. Beyond Niihau to the west lie the atolls beginning with Kaula and extending to Kure Atoll in the west. Kure Atoll is the last place on Earth to change days and the last place on Earth to ring in the new year. The islands of Oahu, Maui, Kauai and Hawaii (Big Island) are the most visited and developed with infrastructure equivalent to much of the civilized world. Molokai and Lanai have very limited accommodation options and infrastructure and have far fewer people. All six of these islands offer an abundance of photographic possibilities. Kahoolawe and Niihau are essentially off-limits. Kahoolawe was a Navy bombing range until recent years and has lots of unexploded ordinance. It is possible to go there as part of a restoration mission but one cannot go there as a photo destination. Niihau is reserved for the very few people of 100% Hawaiian origin and cannot be visited for photography if at all. Neither have any infrastructure. Kahoolawe is photographable from a distance from the southern shores of Maui and Niihau can be seen from the southwestern part of Kauai.

  • Heʻe Wahine I Ka Lani- Goddess in the Surf
    Heʻe Wahine I Ka Lani: Goddess in the Surf by Ian ʻAkahi Masterson In Hawaiʻi, historian David Malo (1951) calls surfing a national pastime and a popular betting sport, indicating that all ages and both sexes enjoyed riding waves on various crafts. John Papa Iʻi (1959) describes the places that King Kamehameha enjoyed surfing, and how he would surf with his favorite wife Kaʻahumanu. Hawaiian Mythology portrays many legendary figures who enjoyed surfing with their intimate partners, like Palani and ‘Iewale of Kahana, as well as Pili Aʻama and Kapūʻewai of Waimea in Koʻolau, Oʻahu. Even the youngest of the Pele clan, Hiʻiaka, surfed off Haʻena, Kauaʻi, with the high chief Lohiʻau, after she and her brother Kanemilohaʻi revived him. There are also many women surfers who hold their own in the surf, displaying great prowess and attracting the highest ranks of kapu chiefs with their beauty and mana—chiefesses like Keaomelemele of Kealohilani, Keleanuinohoanaʻapiʻapi of Maui, Hinahanaiakamālama of Hilo, and Māmala of Kou Harbor in Honolulu. While Keaomelemele is in training, Kelea, Hina, and Māmala all surf with their suitors at some point in their stories. This correlation hints at the literary evidence presented about surfing women within Polynesian oral traditions. In a society that is believed by some historians to be restrictive towards the rights and freedom of women, what was the position of women with regards to surfing as a daily and a ritual activity in Hawaiʻi? How does women’s position in surfing as well as the role of surfing within Hawaiian mythology reflect greater cultural patterns within Remote Oceania? This paper is an exploration into the role of legendary surfing women portrayed throughout Hawaiian history in various myths and legends that mention them.
