ARCHIPELAGO: PORTRAITS OF LIFE IN THE MOST REMOTE ISLAND SANCTUARY
The Lyman Museum and the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Coral Reef Ecosystem Reserve are exhibiting the extraordinary photographs by David Littschwager and Susan Middleton of the remarkable creatures that thrive in the unique and fragile ecosystem of the world's most remote island sanctuary, the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. These islands are off limit to people except for scientific and conservation work. This part of the Hawaiian Archipelago is host to over 7, 000 species of flora and fauna, a quarter of which are endemic to Hawai`i. The exhibition showcases the greatly anticipated new book, Archipelago, by David Littschwager and Susan Middleton. They are the same photographers who two years ago stunned the world with the exquisite photographs from their book, Remains of a Rainbow: Endangered Plants and Animals of Hawai`i. Both books are available in the museum gift shop. The Archipelago exhibit will be at the Lyman Museum 276 Haili St. in Hilo from December 23, 2005 to January 27, 2006
