While we were on Kauai, we took a drive out to Hanapepe on a Friday evening. There, once a week (on Fridays) this dumpy little seaport town becomes a hotspot of local art and culture. We had a blast walking around and looking through all the artist galleries - it was quite a treasure trove. I didn't have time for a lot of shots but liked this scene on the sidewalk late at night, as everyone was packing up to head home. I could spend a week there shooting and not run out of things to see. You might notice the "Lilo and Stitch" painted on the wall; this part of Hawaii provided the chief inspiration for the setting of the Disney film of the same name (see here for an interesting article). Cool!
