Mahaloness is an art blog documenting the life of the artist Shane Haltman, eloquently called hälts. Shane lives and makes art in Canada, and on occasion, Mexico. This is his story.
My friend Stu, it was at a really posh hotel, he happened to be quite gifted at classical piano, so he sat down and played, when security came they let us play on:)
Awesome, that is a ukele belonging to a Hawaiin prince I befriended named Kamillo, he played the most amazing song, his grandmothers song, passed down form genertation to generation, it was a great honor:)
I feel that this speaks volumes about solitude and the isolation we feel in moments of natural splendour & man made beauty. Or possibly it’s just a load of really cool photos. You decide? 🙂
We make the most of where we’re at, the moments here happen everyday, everywhere, every which way, though perhaps not always apparent if we are in some kind of numbed state or caught up in our daily blah blah, these moments were gifts and I was happy to document them and share them here.
A good friend, Stu, I met him on the Big Island Hawaii, he was classically trained and there happened to be a piano at a posh hotel, he sat down and played unannounced, it was a really special moment in time:)
The closest thing I can think of to wordless is duende, it’s gypsy term of some kind, when you get that tingle up and down the spine, a mix of sorrow and joy.

It feels like I must know you (*_*)?
August 18, 2012 at 11:33 pm

August 18, 2012 at 10:24 pm
BTW–it’s the “piano” image that touched me :))

Wow that’s amazing! Thank you for sharing! 😀

I like the piano photo a lot, but I’m hopelessly drawn to the sea, so that is where I cast my vote. Gorgeous!
August 19, 2012 at 2:08 am
Music and the sea a great combo:)
August 19, 2012 at 2:22 am
That’s for sure! 🙂

Speechless! *’coz I could still find a word to compliment* 😉
August 19, 2012 at 9:33 am
Excellent choice:)
August 19, 2012 at 11:18 am
Photos like these are the best — not that much physically, but can get through your heart. At least for me and for all the others here, I believe.
August 19, 2012 at 11:51 am
Better than words and the silence of being will always be louder than words. Thankyou
August 19, 2012 at 7:39 pm
Nicely put:)

A picture’s worth a thousand words. I think the piano photo is my favorite.
August 19, 2012 at 7:41 pm
