The Surf photography/Art thread

Mickeroo

Its come to my attention that theres a few posters on here pretty handy with the old camera, pretty sure there's at least one artist too so I thought it might be good to have a thread devoted to surfing related pictures and art.

The thread's not just for peoples own works of art either so if you come across a good pic or painting on a blog, MSW or Surfline or wherever feel free to stick it up here! Just be sure there's a copyright stamp on it or post a link to the source and that if its from someones own blog or site.

I'll get the ball rolling with this tilt shift of Teahupoo I found on Reddit by a chap called Tim Mckenna(more here):



I don't really understand how a tilt-shift works but I've never seen that wave look so small yet so big :eek:

This is miniature faking really. If you see the blurred top and bottom here, these effectively trick you into thinking that this is a close up. It's known as the diorama illusion. It's more than likely taken from a tower somewhere to make the process really look like a miniature

Could be taken from a chopper too,

It's interesting though, everything look like parts of a really realistic model.

Pretty surprised at how good some of the waves in the great lakes look.

Mickeroo

Three brave beginners in Enniscrone yesterday:


And proof of idiocy :-(

Yes, the car was broken into, most of the windows smashed and interior did ont attract me at all. Shame, shame, shame.

Waiting for someone to finally send that over the cliff to be honest.
