Thinking in Textures

Since returning home for the summer here in Cornwall, I have been trying to get out and shoot as much as possible between coaching at the surf school. Whether its sunny and offshore or gloomy and small I have tried to push myself into getting as much water time as possible.

I’ve started to enjoy trying to capture the way different conditions create such varying textures on the water and waves. From smooth oily glass like waves to wind curdled chop. I’ve been putting together a little collection which I will post when completed but thought in the meantime I would share some images from the past few months that have been sitting on the hard drive.

Sunrise Slide

Another beautiful morning in the bay with sunshine, light winds and waves. I hooked up with a few friends and some of the boys from Slide65 surfboards for a little longboard shoot. Although the waves weren’t standing up perfectly at Gwithian there were still some fun ones coming through and the boys were tearing it up on the longboards. Can’t beat a early morning surf to set you up for the day before work.

Here are some of my favourite photos from the session, let me know what you think and feel free to share!

Sunset Paddle

Godrevy and the surrounding bay basically turned into a lake last week for a few days. These little flat spells normally get to people but with the sunshine and light winds there was plenty of opportunities to enjoy the ocean. We decided to hop on the SUP’s and head out for a paddle around the back of Godrevy Lighthouse and the island to enjoy the sunset. You gotta love summer.

Here’s a few frames from the evening. If your interested in giving this a go yourself hit us up at Gwithian Academy of Surfing – We offer both SUP hire and lessons.
