Water Housing Testdrive

I had a great little run with my water-housing in prep for a surf trip I'm taking in August to photograph Kalani Robb in Mexico. There wasn't a lot to photograph this day but a few images taken I thought were worthy of posting. It's definitely a unique type of photography as your completely at the mercy of the ocean and don't have time to stage imagery, only react. All in all, it was a great learning experience and had a great time. Enjoy!

Byron Bay

Ever been to Byron Bay? If you haven't it's totally worth it! It is bustling with people and has great, white-sandy beaches. The water, as you can see, is beautifully clear. Doesn't hurt either that the water temp is around 75 degrees and the air 85. Just outside of the downtown area, a local pub bartender told us about a man-made lake to swim in that was a must see and that all the locals went there. Turns out it was an abandoned rock quarry that had filled with water and sported 35-50 foot rock jumps. We of course had to do the jumps and they didn't disappoint! Except for the small hematoma on Kat's leg ( yeah right, the bruise was huge and stretched the length of her thigh), everything was awesome! Our next stop is Mari's house just outside of Brisbane where her and her family graciously offered to put us up for a few days; we'll check in later to tell you how it goes!
