New Surf City – canvas series

Honolulu Tsunami at theinertia.com

Folks, I’ve always imagined well known cities with surf in them. Of course most don’t have and we hardly ever see images of any except for the very occasional image of Honolulu or Rio. I set out to see what some of these places would look like with surf so with the help of Photoshop, [...]

Calm conditions deliver great surf-art opportunities.

A shell on the beach during sunrise.

Most folks who know my photography, often know how much I’ve always pursued and photographed waves. Sometimes, it’s not even the waves at all that I shoot, but maybe the foam that was left behind or a random bit of water leaping over the edge of the beach. Perhaps a shell buried in the sand. [...]


I’ll always remember

Man covered in ash,with U.S. flag

Just stopping for a moment to think about the heroes from Sept 11th, ten years ago, today. This is my photo tribute to September 11th, a photo which in fact, I captured back in 1993, some 8 years before 9/11. I’ll never forget.


Liberty Surf in New York City.

"Liberty Surf"

Folks, there is a world tour surf contest happening in New York right now with a unprecedented record prize money purse of 1 million dollars. The surf so far has been pretty poor but I reckon they must be expecting some good waves eventually with Hurricane Katia now on the approach. It could end up [...]


A touch of Tahiti and big wave surfing

silhouetted onlookers at Teahupoo, Tahiti, 2003

I’ve traveled to Tahiti numerous times over the years and it’s always an astonishingly beautiful place to visit. Many first time visitors will agree that it’s much like what one imagines Hawaii being like 100 years ago. Life is a simple contented existence on the land for many Tahitians, particularly out in the country areas. [...]


Surf City Canvas wrap line-ups.

Sydney - Surf City 3

Folks, I’ve dabbled a little bit here and there with photoshop over the years, but what I like to do is create amazing scenes that you wouldn’t otherwise ever see. Scenes that are quite obviously not real, to most folks, but always ultimately compelling to look at for most everyone. It started a few years [...]

Giving back to what gives me life

Canvas print: Towards the light

Folks, I’ve always had a deep appreciation for the ocean, the seaside, the beach. It’s always been my fun zone for as long as I can remember anything. I often get asked for donations to worthy causes and although I simply can’t afford to donate to every request, I do try to look after those [...]

Randy Laine riding a jetski at Outside Avalanche 1999

This was back in 1999 and I was up in a helicopter, randomly photographing tow surfing. Nothing organised as such. I was checking out these guys at Outside Avalanche when this one guy on an old school stand-up jetski caught a Huge wave and just got real close to the
