If you check out my other post on Hawaii (my very first post, actually!), you’ll see that I’ve been to Maui a number of times. My first time there was in December 1998, and most recently was February 2014. Not surprisingly, I have a huge backlog of Hawaii photos, so I figured I’d upload some here! These only go back as far as 2007, for two reasons. One, I was 14 in 2007 and while I believe some teenagers are very talented photographers (especially with technology these days!), I was not one of those teenagers, and any photos I could post from before 2009 wouldn’t be great. Reason two is that I simply don’t have any pictures from Hawaii on my laptop from before 2009.
I debated whether to divide these up by year or by category, and settled on sorting them by category. I took a lot more quality photos last year than I did in 2009 or 2010, so the 2009 category would be tiny, and the 2014 section would be enormous and almost un-navigatable. There are a lot of photos in this post, so if you’re not interested in all of the topics, please use the “find” function (“control/command” + “F” on most computers) in your internet browser to jump to the section you are interested in. Lots of photos means this was lots of work for me to edit, organize and put together, so I’d love it if you could give the topics you enjoy a look, and appreciate as much of it as possible!
