“Do something with your white
tern photographs!”

— Petey K.

For over a decade Petey K admonished Cat Peterson to “do something with your white tern photographs.”

In 2024, Cat did.

There were many thousands of photographs to sort through. Perhaps several tens of thousands.

The endless search for and categorization of white tern photos paid off.

First came Fluffy Little Tree Angels.

Then, My Tree Angel Report.

With so many photos still unused, You Were Born to Fly: Manu-o-Kū Wisdom, a graphic novel, leapt into being one week.

Many of the best photographs have been highlighted in White Tern Photography, Manu-o-Kū (Digital) Art and its companion, Manuo-Kū Photography, White Tern (Digital) Art.

With many, many more wonderful photos to share — and white-tern photography continues with new cameras & new techniques — thereʻs more to come!

Non-white-tern projects are also in the works.

Manu-o-Kū Books titles are available through Amazon.

Manu-o-Kū is Hawaiian for White Tern
