Caption: Surf Photography at Diamond Head - 3 to 7+ (faces) - very few good shots and I am definitely not in shape for it. I was taking it on the head too many times. surf photography is dangerous ... don't do it. I think I had the wrong lens (15mm fisheye), I should have used the 50mm f/1.4. The extra reach would have help. These are the selected few I was content with for now. Aloha and A Hui Ho. View Album Photos - album 1 of 84 | 207 Photos

I just don't have much time to dedicate when the South Shore is crackin'. These could use a little more post processing but that's reserved for the few hardcores that really want there pix. Aloha.

Caption: I created a task for myself a long time ago. That task was that someday I would revisit my old photos from Waimea Bay. Partly to analyze, reflect, look at the photos with a different set of google eyes and reminisce at the big surf and big waves back then. And ... also to compare my photographic technical skills (if any) from then and now.<br /><br />Some of the photos are a little grainny, I didn't shoot in RAW format back then because I didn't have enough money for expensive memory cards and i also didn't have good equipment. <br /><br />This is Re-Birth of the Giants.
