I've spent my life surfing. So naturally I photograph it fairly often - although it's far from my favourite thing to shoot. On gloomy days, capturing a crisp surf shot is near impossible and the colours are generally flat and uninteresting. I've really enjoyed opening the shutter, on all surf photography but especially on a gloomy day to give the image some well-needed character, being motion and colour. This was a tiny, rainy day at Kingscliff between drinking coffees and progressing onto beers with a bunch of buddies.
