You’ll forget you’re in New York

Located at the foot of the Ko'olau Mountains in the Valley of the Temples Memorial Park, the Byodo-In Temple marks the 100th anniversary of the first Japanese immigrants to Hawaii. The temple is surrounded by lush greenery on all sides, making it look like something out of a postcard.

This was a different experience because while I did have my camera on me, I put most of my time into assisting the other photographers and learning from them. I also ran around grabbing BTS.
