71ST ANNUAL NÂ HULA FESTIVAL, 8/7/11

Our Hawaii Photographic Society (HPS) club enjoyed taking pictures of this festival sponsored by the City and Count of Honolulu Department of Parks and Recreation at the Queen Kapiolani Park Band Stand. For more information, here is a link.  

The first group: Halau Hula `O Nawahine





This is Makaleka, isn't she graceful?
Puanani Alama
Leilani Alama, (Kaiulani Kauahi?), and Puanani Alama - both ladies were once students in this long running festival and now should be very proud how well their students perform.








Besides our club, I saw lots of photographers in the audience.  It is so nice to see hula enjoyed by all.
