Pro Bowl TV Timeout

During a TV timeout in the 2016 NFL Pro Bowl, the Aloha Stadium video crew captures a group of NFL Pro Bowl Cheerleaders performing in the south end zone, and the shot can be seen on the video board in the background.

Coincidentally, the two video crew are also San Francisco 49ers fans, and happen to be shooting the 49ers cheerleader.

B-Roll

A videographer from Taiwan's EBC News shoots b-roll video of planes taking off from HNL's "Reef Runway" during the 2024 RIMPAC exercises, and he's waiting for this Delta Air Lines Boeing 767 to taxi past, as jet fighters were lining up to take off.

B-Roll is a TV production term for extra footage shot that will be added to a live or pre-recorded news report, sports broadcast, or feature piece.

Silence Of Night

Hau‘oli Makahiki Hou! Happy New Year!

This photo was taken from Maunalani Heights, overlooking Palolo Valley and metro Honolulu, at 2:30A. It was extremely quiet above the city. A rain cell is blowing out of Mānoa Valley.

I took this photo after my dad passed away about 2 hours earlier. After I got the call, I went up to talk with the nurses, and wait for the mortuary to pick him up. That took a while, and one of the nurses said I could sit out on the lanai. I spent time in prayer, listening to praise and worship music, while enjoying the cool breeze, and felt God's peace.

Pineapple Drop

While New York City has the ball drop at midnight on New Year's Eve, the town of Mililani in Central O‘ahu has the Pineapple Drop on New Year's Eve. Prior to development beginning in the mid-1960s, the land from the Kīpapa Gulch to Wahiawā, consisted mostly of pineapple fields.

Wishing you all a Happy New Year!

Baptism

It's been almost a year since my Dad graduated to Heaven. One of the proudest moments I have as his son, was when he decided to get baptized about a year after receiving Jesus. Dad is pictured with Pastor Elwin Ahu of Metro Christian Church after his baptism at Ala Moana Beach in 2013.

Also, we wish you all a Merry Christmas!
