This is the famous Duke statue on the beach at Waikiki. It is to the man who, among many accomplishments, introduced the world to surfing. He was an Olympic Gold Medal winner multiple times, he saved several fishermen using his surf board - now standard equipment in lifeguard stations and much more.

The statue is often thronged with people and draped with leis. I tried to capture it with a surfer in the frame as well as on the water.
