Fencing in Paradise

A  L  O  H  A !
PARADOX:
The mural on this
 construction fence shows
the paradise they are selling-
The paradise they are infringing.












The Sunset Cannot Be Fenced














I like what this photo reveals 
about the back streets and 
older infrastructure of Honolulu.
It says a lot about how 
local people live, 
in cinderblock apartments, 
riding mopeds.
But if you look to the 
end of this street, you 
see the peaks of the Ko`olau Mts.

    Funny thing the moped stood out first for me, but I always love the mountains! Aloha, enjoy your off the beaten paths, everyday.

    I do not like tall buildings.
    I like to look at the sky not live in it.

    Progress isn't always a "good" thing. - Too bad they've infringed on the beautiful countryside with highrise buildings. - I agree that sunset was to pretty to be fenced in.
