Sometimes looking at waves in full color can really set the mood of the photo. For a change, take a look at these waves in black and white. Desaturated color but completely over saturated in power. A paddler’s eye view of some solid swell.

There are probably hundreds of boards that are snapped each day around the world, and most are thrown into landfills or left on the beach. Not good! A great way to recycle the fiberglass and foam is to add some art and hang it on a wall for inspiration. So the next time you get a chance to recycle a broken board, go for it!
Our art director Ryan Kleiner is working on the Way of the Ocean: Australia book which will be available in the near future. The hard cover book will consist of the photography and art behind the movie. Stay tuned . . .

About the Film:
Way of the Ocean: Australia, explores the connection between man and sea through a visual feast of poetic motion. The world’s largest island provides a breathtaking backdrop to some of the best surfing found on the planet. Since it was first introduced in the early 1900′s, surfing in Australia has become a mainstream pursuit and for this country devoted to the ocean lifestyle, it is more than a way of life. From the tropical paradise of the Great Barrier Reef down through the frigid Southern Ocean and up to the arid desert of the west, the film captures an intimate portrait of this unique land. Vibrant super 16mm and High Definition cameras bring to life the stunning visuals, set to a heart thumping original score. Welcome to the odyssey of your life. Welcome to Australia.
