Below is a collection of artists that risk life and limb to produce world class results in the world of (surfing) water photography. You don’t have to be a surfer to appreciate these masterpieces, the colours, shapes and general beauty is outstanding in every shot. Enjoy!!
“Homer Henard and Nic Lamb scoring mega slabs somewhere up north.” – This is so awesome…. I want to try it NOW!!!
The Dirty ol’ Wedge is a world-famous surfing, bodyboarding and bodysurfing spot located at the extreme south end of the Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach, California. When conditions are just right an approaching wave will reflect off a groin creating a second “side wave”. The reflected wave meets up with the following wave of the set and forms the mother of all peaks. This spot is not for the faint of heart and has been known to maim and kill. These next 25 pictures are the proof! SO heavy!!
“Water is sucked up into vertical storage tanks and then dropped, somewhat like a toilet flushing, to form a downward surge. The released water compresses and rebounds off the bottom of the pool, surging upwards and forwards. When coupled with the abrupt bottom contours of the pool, this surge forms a jacking 6-foot wave with groundswell-like strength. Surfable waves up to 8 feet and a 10-foot closeout are possible, although surfing quality suffers beyond the optimum 6-foot size.” Found Via Kim Gee-wing.
Cape Wave Photography is the Facebook page and brand of the seriously talented water photographer Tyler Harmon. Based around Oahu, he captures some of the most inspirational and exciting surf photography and shore-break art I have ever seen.
Not only managing to capture the beauty and power of the subject perfectly but also putting his neck on the line in some of the most challenging water conditions on the planet. The photo link above goes to his fan page or you can order a print here.
Check out this amazing photo set by Australian photographer Steve Wall! He documents an insane bodyboarding session that went down at a secret South OZ Bombie. Razor sharp rock lies only inches below the surface, risk of injury and possible death are always one false move away. The guys riding these waves are truly taking their lives into their own hands and risking everything for their love of mutant slabs. Full on respect due!
This post is a homage to the fairer sex and their love for the sea, these girls are not only very hot but most of them can tear it apart the best of them. Whether they are gunning down the face of 10 foot Teahupoo or simply chilling on the beach, you can’t argue the beauty of these next 30 mages. Some slightly not work safe.
