Check out a few frames from my trip on the Road to Hāna. The Hāna Highway is a popular tourist attraction in Maui. It is a 68-mile (109 km) long stretch of Hawaii State Routes 36 and 360 which connects Kahului with the town of Hāna in east Maui. It takes about 2.5 hours to drive when no stops are made as the highway is very winding and narrow and passes over 59 bridges, 46 of which are only one-lane bridges.
I’m known for getting car sickness very easy. My wife and my friends told me to stay away from this road, or you get very sick. I made it and may be snatching some photos here and there helped me to get distracted enough to not get sick at all.

Her opinion is that Denver is capable of creating a larger art and fashion community. “We need to all come together and create something wonderful!”
At this years Forever Darling fashion show I was able to look behind the scene and see the show on the catwalk at the Sherman Events Center in Denver.
First a view behind the scene, before the beautiful models appear on the catwalk.
First night of the Colorado Denver Fashion Week at the Buell Theater is over. Star of the night was NARS Master Makeup artist Erroll Perkins with his crew of make up artists.
When I saw the first drawings of this cake in Janusz’s shop, I was speechless. Janusz explained his ideas to me, he was so excited about his plans for this cake. He was pointing out with his fingers the things he was talking about on the piece of paper in front of him. Then he started drawing the project with his hands up in the air, above his workstation, getting even more excited. After this experience I wanted to be a part of this cake project and tell the story of the making of this cake with my camera. The next 2 weeks I spent long nights with Janusz in his kitchen working on the industrial wedding cake.
It took almost two weeks to build this cake. On the day of the wedding it took 4 people 2 hours to set it up at the reception venue. After the cake was done I asked Janusz if he would do this again. He started laughing at me: “No, this was a unique project”! – But then he slowly opened up one of the drawers in front of him, pulled out some drawings … and there was the excitement in his eyes again for a new cake project. Can’t wait to photograph this one!
