Artist's Description

There is a legend associated with the 'ohi'a tree and it's blossoms that goes like this:

About James Temple

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.
