Shot more than a year ago. As soon as we have a sunny day, I plan to get out amongst the spider lilies and re-introduce myself to my favorite and best models.

As I was trying to think up a title, I caught myself wondering if this gecko still exists. I don't know the average lifespan of this species in the wild, but it seems possible that this photo is all that's left.

Now I'm getting sentimental over a gecko? I really need to get out more ;-)

Another shot from last Thursday at our local spot -- this bodyboarder put on a great show.

I spent the weekend on Oahu and have over 1200 shots to review, including many from the Da Hui Backdoor Shootout at Pipeline :-)

We finally got a good-sized swell yesterday here in Kona and I took about 600 shots, but all from shore. On a recent trip to the summit of Mauna Kea, I broke the lens I use in my surf housing, so couldn't venture out to dodge the traffic.

Yesterday's session with Ben and the new camera surf housing from Erik at Del Mar Housing Projects

I still have a lot to learn, but the housing itself worked great! Now we just need bigger waves.

Poolside Sunset

From last night.

I used a GND filter to balance the exposure, and it really brought out the colors.

Today is my one year anniversary on flickr! Thanks to all of you for making it a great year!

This is more action from Zicatela Beach in Puerto Escondido, Mexico. After much laziness, I've finally finished going through all my shots from this trip to Oaxaca.

I had a great afternoon of shooting Saturday at Ke'ei -- the winds from the south blew all the vog away and the light was amazing.

Years ago, a friend lived in a house under those palm trees -- no electricity or running water, but a great view of the surf. Just weeks after he moved, a storm destroyed the house.
