There she is again Fax. I get stuck with my buddy Rob, and you run around with Pauahi all day. Seriously though I like this series. Its a very strong but beautiful look at traditional Hawaiian culture. #1588539

I am continuing to be "floored" by what we created that day. I'm going to enter a few more. (Not quite fair Jason, I know!)

Oh, thank you so much Joyce and Laura. When I first saw Pauahi waitressing at one of my husband's gigs I knew she was beautiful, but I didn't know how she would be in front of the camera.
As you said Joyce, soft, honest and utterly composed. Quite the combo.

Aloha Jill, Karen, Khawla, Wendy, Melissa, and Laura. Thanks you sooooo much!
Now that I looked at the color version I wonder why I "bothered " with as the work to make it B&W. But I like that version too and never got the right version entered. Here it is for comparison. #1746344
