ART SURF

Surfing and Art have long been tied together and are often spoken as one in the same. The act of riding waves and simply waves themselves are such a special thing, so it is no wonder that people have been drawing painting and photographing them for ages. Surf related art can be found dating back as far as 3,000 years ago in Peru, where engravings were found depicting ancient surfers riding waves. Now days surf art comes in all sorts of forms from simplistic line drawings to intricate oil paintings and beyond. Below are a few simple sketches done to pass the time in the morning as the swell fills in. . .

WATCHING

A Humpback whale in South Australia splashes around for the lucky few on the beach below.

Its pretty amazing to see such a big “fish” up close and personal. Humpback whales generally reach between 40 and 50 ft and although harmless they can make you feel pretty insignificant. The humpbacks were almost hunted to extinction in the past but with the help of a whaling moratorium there are now almost 80,000 around the world.

Some mornings the beach breaks can yield almost perfect conditions. This particular morning was one of those days, with relatively minimal crowds and pumping sets, the early bird gets the worm.
