Beautiful Tahiti’an- like conditions on Oahu
Here in Hawaii, the trade winds blow almost year round from the Nth east, which is great in the hot summer months, but it also means that the wind is always onshore over on the east side of the island, so you rarely get to see the true beauty of the east [...]
Wave of the day – “Aqua-blade”
Folks; todays picture of the day comes to you from the ever-amazing Pupukea sandbar, on the north shore. Every year usually around Feb-March, tons of
sand gets pushed into the beach at Pupukea, between Pipeline and Rocky Point. During these months, the sand gets groomed into a long series of hollow [...]
Gliding underwater with turtles
A lot of folks visit the islands to see the huge surf during our winter months, but just as many people visit the north shore to see what else is out here, during the summer months in particular. Just about anywhere along the north shore, you can throw on [...]
Leopard Peak
OK folks, time for another random wave, this one coming at you from
Gas Chambers, next to Rocky Point , on the north shore of Oahu . I titled this one: “Leopard Peak” because of the leopard skin like pattern in the wave’s foreground. And like most off season [...]
Hawaiian rainbows are very cool.
One very cool thing about Hawaii is the localized rain activity that we get here. It can be totally sunny where you are and yet, just a mile down the road , it could be an absolute deluge of torrential rain. It’s all about the prevailing winds mostly and where they [...]
The cool patterns of nature
Just thought I’d share a few real basic nature images with you from my collection. I simply like the patterns produced by nature in these three images. I’ve included them in a new series of images that is coming up. These images are a sneak peak. [...]
The cat that could have the fish, if he wanted it
I was at my neighbor Josh’s place the other day and his cat was scoping out the fish bowl. Now that was a cliche that I was keen to capture on my camera The funny thing is the cat didn’t want to eat the fish. He just likes to drink [...]
Picture of the day; Pipe Turtle
This was the very first ever picture that I made of a turtle. I was swimming at Pipeline one day and noticed this turtle cruising by and so I dove down and squeezed off just one fabulous frame of fujichrome Velvia. This is still one of my favorite Turtle images, despite that fact [...]
Amazing image of the day
It is always my intent to keep this website not only informative and a great destination for surf photography and all things ocean related, but also to keep it entertaining for my many repeat visitors, who keep coming back to see what I’ve been up to, time and time again. Todays little [...]
Critters
For today’s post, I thought I’d just do something completely different, so I’m throwing the focus on our friends in the animal world. I love to photograph animals although I don’t seem to do it so much. Here are some of my more favourite critter personalities. [...]
Under water, friendly face of the day
I love getting into the water here in Hawaii.
It’s just about always really clear under there and usually some cool stuff going on with
fish, turtles or just waves. It’s absolutely therapy for me, especially when I start my day off with it. [...]

A magic Hawaii’an moment
Yesterday afternoon had the most amazing light show go down, over Rocky point. I had rocked up to maybe shoot some action on the long lens, but it was pretty standard fair. Not really a lot going on. I look over to the east to see the blackest sky with a mean bright [...]

New Canon 7D; First water trials look very promising
I just rigged up my housing to take the new Canon 7D, so I could specifically test the new
60fps video feature. Because the video buttons have been relocated on the 7D, I was only able to film one long clip, from the moment that I pressed the button and sealed the water housing, [...]
An inquisitive South Pacific Booby Bird, in flight
I did a trip a few years ago to a somewhat secret group of surfing islands in the south Pacific. while there, we visited a completely uninhabited island which had dozens of nesting Booby birds situated on it. The birds were quite inquisitive, not really having much of a fear [...]
Davey’s wavey gravey train
I’ve been working really hard lately to get my site more up to date. More to the point, I’ve been adding more galleries. The latest to come on line, are my waves. I went through a collection of near 1,000 images from a 20 year time span, and culled it [...]
As country as it gets
Wow, it sure has been a sleepy little town out here on the north shore this year. It’s easily the quietest that I’ve seen it since 1993. Soon after Blue crush, several years ago, a bunch of TV programs filmed here and opened up the north shore like I’d never seen [...]
