Artist's Description
Puu o Kaiaka, Hill of Kaiaka (a legendary man), located on the west end of the island of Molokai, Hawaii, in Kaluakoi. It is a cinder cone headland separating Kepuhi and Papohaku Beaches. With an elevation of 110 feet, It is also known as Big Rock. This point was the site of a heiau. Heiau were sacred places of worship in ancient Hawaii. They were shrines to gods and places of refuge. Heiau were also places where offerings and prayers were made to personal and family gods, and sacred guardians and protectors.
About James Temple
I've lived in Hawaii since 2002, 1200 feet above sea level, on the small rural island of Moloka'i. It is very quiet here, with only about 7,400 residents. I appreciate the quiet life after spending 35 years as a commercial illustrator, senior art director and design director for major advertising agencies and design studios in Chicago, San Francisco and Palo Alto California. I've always loved cooking. In 2002 that love led me to a degree in the Culinary Arts just before moving to Hawaii. Since then I designed and built a house, worked in local restaurants, self-published three cookbooks, and took up photography as a hobby. Now retired, I spend most of my time developing recipes and photographing them, plus researching and writing...

I love your artistry here. So striking and attractive with the contrast between light aqua and silhouetted rock formation. The crop shape suits it as well. Excellent work. LF
James Temple replied:
Mahalo Michele for your nice comments. What you don't see is the golf corse in front of this shot. Unfortunately it is closed now. This site has a lot of history and is one of my favorite shots of Moloka'i. James

Wonderful sense of power in this photograph James. I can almost hear those waves and smell the ocean air.

We haven't been to Molokai yet, but I have been fascinated with the island. Thank you for sharing such wonderful images!, This is particularly lovely. L/F
James Temple replied:
Aloha Karen, mahalo for your comment. My wife and I have been living on Moloka'i for 16 years now and have never regretted our decision to move here. Every Hawaiian island is different, including yours. I guess that's what makes it such a great place to photograph.
