Was very pleased to see this geezer turn up at the local when it was maxing a few back, even more pleased to see this in that rare form that is print.
Chur @carvemag for running it / @sebsmartx for always going. Oh and cheers the random for standing there n giving me some foreground. Wallop.
Shouts to @calebgiddensmedia & @chrus_istian for getting bits in print as well 🤝⚡️
Always the best feeling.
In a world of digital nonsense (aware on the irony while we look at this on our phones) this is a real pleasure. @kaz_phillipss cruising at home. Yeah Kaz you little beauty.
Long live print & huge congrats to @carvemag for 30 years of keeping it alive.
Can't post this without as always shouting @sharpysurf as well. From the first moment I picked up a camera your willingness to give knowledge/guidance will never be forgotten you bloody legend.
What a bloody lovely surprise.
Bagged the cover of @local.mag issue 4 featuring @laymike . One of my favourite images, speed blurs are a tricky thing especially when floating.
A bloody cracking evening full of good energy followed at the best spot @shoalsbrewery .
Thanks @calebgiddensmedia for giving me the cover again, you better be proud of the mag/evening you put together my friend. Inspiring.
10 years.
Almost to the day since i got the first shot. I sent it to carve and it got published. That sparked a feeling in me I continue to chase to the day. Sometimes it's about the memory that goes with the image. Pete coming out of a hell pit smiling ear to ear / Matty being called into a bomb & snapping his board / johnny getting the all time breakwater wave after I stood there for an hour waiting. Maybe I'd have forgotten those moments without the image to remind me? Who knows, I'm chatting rubbish.
Photography changed my life in the best way, forever grateful to the craft.
Huge congrats to @willownorrisphoto who's feeling that first print buzz. Lovely stuff mate.
No one's reading anymore so shut up me.
Long live capturing moments.

SUN!
At last, that was lovely wasn't it. Feeling lucky to live here & call this place home. Also lucky the boss lets us escape early to get the first bit of vit D of the year.
Tell your people you love them & give them a squeeze.
Recent real nice times.
Style master / doesn't matter what he rides / happiest in the sea on any or no craft @nickpumphreyphoto on the front with the ultimate 90's steez stall. Followed by lots of good crew.
Yew.
Recent navigating through life scenes. Big skies, fun waves before I got cramp, good people & nice coffee/food.
Rinse n repeat until we get vapourised.
Feel very lucky to call this place home.
Went down Botallack for a tea n sit down.
Very lovely time had, on walk back up I heard the unmistakable call of the Chough. A pair on the top of a ruin posing for me in the last of the light, had to wait a while before they moved but it's not a bad place to wait.
The drive back was made tricky because of the murmurations down Deen & the owls deciding it's time to come out.
What a magical place we live 🙌
