Surfbird
When
Overexposed.
The calm before more rain…San Diego, CA!
Big big surf, but blown out and a mess, but we still went out…
Campesinos…
Name that spot…i love that game…this one’s a little easy…but a good warm up run…am on my way south tonight and excited to hit up some old haunts…
Waves come and go like water under the bridge…memories of adventures and friends stay stuck in the sand, shaping the next wave to wash under the bridge. Just got featured on the Daily Shaka…the newest place to surf when it’s flat everywhere else. Stoked!
Flannel, Shotguns, Coffee, Ventucky!
Think about the less fortunate this weekend…as the rain comes down a drowns away dreams…think of how nice it is to be warm and dry, how nice is that roof over your head, really think and think long about how thankful you should be to have a computer by your side to check the surf or this blog, let alone enough money to feed yourself and those you love, maybe you should buy a stranger a meal or give them a dry shirt…share your love…i will…see you out there…
Two Guys, One Camper and Nine Boards…Wish I had been part of that trip…I came upon this rig on the PCH and all I could think of as I passed by and shot this photo were the weeks and weeks of uncrowded perfect breaks, fish tacos, wailing guitars and bonfire dreams…time to head south I say!
Today was a good day…
Took this shot out of the car window, while driving down the highway on my way to cash in my surf check…
Small one person studio for rent, no pets allowed except for fish, non-traditional floorplan, long hallway with jade green walls…please apply inside.
Not a great shot, but the only one I took yesterday…was too busy surfing.
Home sweet home…
Good to be back.
Am off to Catalina for three days…if there is no internet I will post up when I get back…What a weekend!
YEAH!
As promised, here are some more Iceberg barrels (The last photograph is from a different wave sequence, but is so juicy that I thought I’d include it)…if you look at the 4th shot in the sequence there is a small dark spec right above the right side of the wave (left side if you were on the wave) which can also be seen a little bit better higher in shot 5…that’s a bird with a 12-16″ wingspan…when seeing these blue barrels from the ship I assumed they were about chest high…it was dificult to gauge the size not having anything for scale. It was not until I really looked at these shots that I saw the bird and thus could measure these babies at about 10ft+…Amazing. Check out the Antarctica Portfolio for more shots…
Another shot from the Antarctica files…more Antarctic surf shots to be posted mañana
zoomed way in to take this shot with my little digital camera while in Uruguay…kinda pixelated but nice…
Tried the wide angle feature on the camera…kind of fun…Uruguay!
Am back in town…and drowning in over 3000 photos taken since I left. It’ll take me some time to sift through the pile so I figured I’d post an appetizer. Surf is still here and I am excited to get back in. It has been too long.
