Share Da Aloha 2011

EDITED POST AT 4:54PM HST
May 20, 2011 was a day filled with the Spirit of God and some 20 plus halau’s danced their hula presentations to God. Halau’a from across the world joined in this beautiful event. Saddleback Church who is the creator of this event brought the event to Honolulu, Hawaii this year 2011 and blessed New Hope Manoa with the task of being the host of this event.
The event took place in the Stan Sheriff Center on the ground of the University of Hawaii Campus. A large group of people sat and watched this event and loved every minute of the program. If you attended this event we are sure you were blessed like we were.
We want to thank the team of photographers who shared their photos with the New Hope Manoa Photo Ministry. Special thanks go to Ernie, Tish, Noel, and Cindy for taking so many photos and sharing them with us.
A slideshow has been created of this event and is available for viewing online as well as being downloaded for personal use only. The links are as follows:
Just finished the SDA 2011 Slideshow.

Enjoy the slideshow.
We are also in the process of building a site on Shutterfly for those who may want to purchase photos of the event. We are also creating a web gallery showing photos taken at the event as well.
The link to the Shutterfly is http://nhmanoapm.shutterfly.com/?role=-1
The link to the Web Galleries is http://nhmanoa.org/SDA2011/ (Should be available about 5:30pm 05/26/2011) There were more photos taken by Ernie, Noel, and Tish so contact us if you would like a DVD of all their photos. These galleries contain photos to be used for the slideshow.
Right now we have just one halau which is “Na Keiki O Ke Akua” uploaded to the site. We will be adding more as time permits. Please be patient with us as there were lots of photos taken and we are still going over them. Halau of New Hope and Saddleback Church will hopefully be uploaded to Shutterfly tonight.

On Sept. 5, 2010 the NHManoa Photo Ministry has been asked to help photograph a wedding of a young couple at the church. The wedding will take place at the conclusion of the church service and will continue into the wedding ceremony. Ernie, Cindy and I will be taking the photos of the wedding ceremony and Ernie and I will be taking photos of the couple after the wedding ceremony.
Makapuu Photo Shoot
by Willy on Aug.24, 2010, under Photo
We had a fun Saturday morning at the Makapuu Lookout on the 21st. Even though the group was small we had fun taking photos. The day started off with a cloudy sky which which God graced us. Later in the morning God opened the skies some for us and we saw some blue skies as well.
We then had some fun and a great Dim Sum lunch at Harbor Village in Koko Marina. Thanks Debra for paying for the lunch. Like typical photographers we sat eating and sharing our photos on our iPhones and iTouch devices. Boy technology has changed some but photographers are still the same.
Sorry for those of you who couldn’t make the shoot and maybe you will be able to join us in our next outing. I am planning a outing to go and see the Blue Angels in September.
