Easty.... Dogg Boy

Nathan East ... a Dogg Boy ( Brown Dogg Surfboards rider ) and better known as Easty to his mates.... hooking into a few at The Farm early morning on the 8th Jan.

This is the Day . . . .

Summertime is.... Loggin time

Rad Saturday

Jake and I were fortunate enough to have saturday morning free to head over to the northern beaches and catch up with Matty C and Thomas "Doc" Bexon who was on his way to Vico and had organised to stop in at The Sugarmill to shape a few boards.

We met up with the boys for an early surf and we wound up at Palmy to find some nice peelers for the boys on their logs. It was then back to the Sugarmill for coffee, bacon & egg rolls and a look at all the new goodies Chongy has in the shop.... I could have done some serious damage to my credit card, but refrained.... If you haven't been to the Sugarmill get over there... it's rad .... I only wish it was on my side of the harbour bridge tho!

Fun morning boys... thanks!

Looking forward .....

to NOOSAAAAAAAA 2011 . . . .

It was at Noosa in March 2010 that my love for Surf Photography hit new heights and I can't wait until March 2011 to get back there.... this time with far better gear and my Aquatech water housing as well... Just hope the usual shredders grace us with their presence.

Here's 2 of my favourite pics from Noosa 2010 that are about to be published in ALB's 2010 Photo Annual. Yew!

ripples and more ripples ....

Given the forecast for perfect logging conditions all week I have been psyched to shoot.... and what a morning.... Golden Sun, clean little logging waves, warm water & a good vibe in the water... i kinda wish I was riding them but I had a great time and shared a few laughs with the fellas... til tomorrow... STOKED!

Manly Festival

Jake & I did the early run over to Manly to catch up with Isaac Fields whilst on his stay in Sydney town. We were greeted with some fun waves for the boys on their logs in the southern corner. I snapped a few before we went to check out the Manly Festival of surfing.

The not so secret spot.....

Up and in the car by 4am put us at the "Secret Spot" by 5.15 in time for a beautiful sunrise and some uncrowded peelers. The water was freezing compared to the day before at Palm Beach and Jake & I were both stoked on our decision to take along a steamer.

Palm Beach

We went over to Palmy ( Summer Bay as my Girls call it ) for the annual Old Mal Rally... it was a cracking day but the waves on the comp bank weren't the best , but everyone had a great time nonetheless, thanks to all the Palmy Crew. I managed to snap off a fewhots here & there and snuck up the norther corner out of the wind with the boys for a few water shots. Good times!
