Surfing Pictures
These are the most recent surfing pictures I've taken. Sometimes of good surf, sometimes of bad.
It's a realistic glimpse of what can be found day to day around here. It's not always the best surf of the day, just what I can get to with my schedule.
In the old days before kids, my wife took such pictures of me surfing. It wasn't easy getting the right shot – rain, the sun at wrong angle, our kids eating sand, my wrist/hand bent in a sissy-like manner during that perfect moment, etc. You can read about it in my wife's article about taking surfing pics.
