So quirky but so good. I found this really inspiring.

DRIZZLING DARKNESS
Brandon and I did a run down to a dark and drizzly left on what was supposed to be a sunny July day. Some summer! At least there was a dark mood out in the water to tinker with through the lens.

HAIL TREVOR!
Trevor got the cover of the Patagonia Spring 2010 catalog as well as the front page of the Patagonia website. Needless to say we are both really stoked... and boy does he deserve it, such a talented yet humble guy.

HIDING FROM COMFORT
Australian Sponge Cinema has long captivated me, cranking out some of the most gritty and extreme films capturing those crazy speed bumps going to town in shark-infested death slabs no stand-up surfer would ever dare touch. Needless to say, this new film by professional bodyboarder Mitch Rawlins looks nothing short of insane. Check out this trailer to "The Road" too.

SUBAQUATICA FIJI
Here's a clip I made of some underwater randomness in Fiji last month. Brandon and Trevor star in some peculiar shots, filmed when there weren't any waves during our stay in the north eastern part of the country. Man how I miss that water....

FUNKY FRESH
On a recent evening surf session just south of SB i grabbed an old, rusted 35mm camera out of the back of my car and decided to snap a couple evening shots in the dumpy shorebreak. I loaded a roll into it and swam out, rocking just a 50mm (rusted at f/1.8) with no waterhousing. At first I exerted some effort to keep it dry, but after several trips through the barrel i decided it wasn't worth the effort to fight the water. And so I dunked the camera, swished some water into the lens and opened the film back several feet below the surface. I developed the film at Longs and did not apply any additional funkery. Here are the photos, pretty strange eh?

ODDITY
In Brazil, i mostly shot digital photos and Super8. I found this to be my favorite combo; I love my Nikon D700 like I imagine I'll love my son, and my Bolex 155 super8 rarely leaves the grip of my fingers, anywhere. I did however shoot one roll of Kodak Gold 200, which i deliberated to be a thoughtful and miscellaneous collage spanning the entire trip. I don't think I've ever made a roll last so long, traverse so much distance, and expose to so many non-sequential subjects. Needless to say, while my appendage of a D700 enjoyed Brazil extensively, the un-mysticalness of dumping a day's worth of photos to a computer only fueled the daily increase of my excitement to see this hodge-podge roll.
Well, here is what I got back, basically a roll of Bubble Wrap. 90% of the photos are illegible. The upper three are what pulled through, and the bottom is just to remind you of what lines a UPS box. X-ray machines 1, Morgan 0. I'm not angry, just... befuddled.

UNREALEST OF UNREAL
I think this is my favorite photo.
It's so powerful, raw, intense, yet so soothing and majestic.
A moment i would do anything to be able to witness, to feel the mist and hear the roar.
