Malibu Aerial Image added to Print Gallery

Today I made available another aerial image from the massive swell that hit California in December of 2006. This image gives you a bird's eye view of Malibu maxing out during the biggest day in over a decade. I plan on adding several other aerial images to my print gallery in the next couple months. Stay tuned.

Waterman's Ball Calendar

Last month I had the great honor of contributing a few of my images to be used in the 20th annual Waterman's Ball Calendar. The ball, put on by SIMA, is an annual celebration to raise funds to protect and preserve our oceans. It is also a time for recognizing and honoring the surf industry's legends, leaders and personalities. In it's 20 years, the SIMA environmental fund has raised close to $5.0 million which has been distributed to organizations dedicated to protecting and preserving our oceans, beaches, surf breaks and waves. Here are a few of the pages from the calendar that contain my contributions.

Bali and Beyond

After three years of law school and enduring the grueling California Bar exam it was time for my girlfriend, Monica, to go explore the world with me. We opted for a three week trip to Bali during the month of August. I've been to Bali a couple times before. However, I had apparently traveled during the low season. The last minute accommodation booking of our "high season" trip in August left us with one option, vagabond style. Due to lack of availability we ended up moving to a new location every couple days. Normally, this is not my ideal situation. In this case though, it allowed us to see and experience Bali through a much greater scope. The highlights were diving in Amed, riding elephants in Ubud, exploring Nusa Lembongan by scooter, visiting the Bali Aga village of Tenganan and lounging by the pool at Desa Seni. Here is a slideshow of some of my favorite images from the trip.
