Local photographer publishes guide to Oahu

(EMAILWIRE.COM, December 04, 2008 ) Oahu, Hawaii -- Local photographer Bruce Foley has co-written a visitor's guide for Oahu tourist. It is available in virtual bookstores now.

"Discover Oahu: A Pictorial Guide to a Tropical Island Paradise (Paperback)" to bring island visitors a photographic and descriptive glimpse of the land and air activities, as well as art and cultural museums and attractions on the island.

The travel guide includes such information as some local history, most popular Oahu attractions, contact info for attractions, hints about what to bring and/or what to wear, and often background information on the attraction.

Oahu attractions are a hot topic to Hawaiian visitors," Foley said. "I thought there was really a need for a book of facts and photographs for potential visitors to turn to when looking at the many options for their Oahu vacation or getaway."

He said she decided to co-write the book -- a one-year project -- after researching local attractions for his own family and island visitors.

In this photographic essay about Oahu vacation adventures Foley, takes a candid, but personal, look at the island from a vacationerÂ’s perspective. He is extremely familiar with the island and the opportunities it offers. Foley is especially familiar with North Shore beaches as he is an avid surfer and when not in the water, he is usually on the beach photographing the surf and local surfing enthuasists. (His photos can be viewed at kustomphoto.net.)

This new travel guide is a publication of the Iowa Bed & Breakfast Innkeepers Association. Co-author Amelia Painter is the B&B organization's exclusive travel writer and when she viewed some of Foley's photographic work she became excited about working with Foley.

Another reason Painter was interested in the book was the recent publicity the Oahu bed and breakfast community has been generating. One of the real gems of information in the book is a listing of highly rated bed and breakfast accommodations found on the island. Since there is not an organization inspecting and approving the B&B operations on the island, at this time, the research put into the listing will help visitors find clean, quality lodging without having to spend hours and hours researching the various island B&Bs -- the authors have done the tedious task for readers. The book is now available at Amazon.com and other online book stores.
