Sometimes finding the best opportunities for photos comes off the beaten path. While patrolling in Paia, I decided on instinct to meander off of Hana Highway and down one of the side streets into a mini residential subdivision. I ran into a well known Paia personality named Paia Bob. A 22-year resident of Maui, Bob is an outspoken Hawaiian rights activist with often controversial points of view. You can find his videos on YouTube here.
This is face with a history if ever I have seen one. He hasn't had an easy life, but he has won through.
ReplyDeleteThe beard made a magnificent framing, together with the hat.
PS Thank you for the nice comment!
