Photosynth activist tool
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, click on this and tell me how many words you think it’s worth. Photosynth is a tool that let’s you take tens, hundreds or even thousands of photos and automatically stitch them together.
This enables you to do more than document how a sea wall looks from [...]
Ron Stoner leads, everyone else follows
I know, photography… like any of the arts… it’s subjective. One person’s Picasso is another person’s trash. Still… when I think of surf photography one of the first names that pops into my mind is Ron Stoner. Here’s why…
Call me retro, or anything you’d like, but Ron Stoner captures more than an image of surfing, [...]
If Eames surfed… he’d be Ed Fladung
One of my favorite things about the internet is finding people that you wouldn’t otherwise find. I love alt-tabbing over to Newsfire and seeing what is directed my way.
Though one of those feeds came Ed Fladung.
He describes himself… “I’m a graphic designer who lived in L.A. I quit my job, sold my car, rented out [...]
The eye of Ryan Tatar
Among my favorite things that the internet has delivered is the ability to share photography and design with… anyone interested. When I hit my NewsFire for feeds I almost always find myself drawn first to those feeds. It was there that I found out about Ryan Tatar.
I dig Ryan’s eye on things. Below is a [...]
Danny Fuller. No, the artist
If you surf then you probably know a surfer from the north shore of Oahu named Danny Fuller.
I’m not talking about that one.
Ok, so I am talking about that one.
I had heard about Danny’s other interest a while back but never had a chance to see his work. Now we all do. He has a [...]
Timeless photos
I’ve always been drawn to anything timeless. Eames comes to mind… so does photography that casts itself into dreamy worlds.
The images here are from She Hit Pause Studios made up ofMatt Schwartz, photographer, and Kate Shawver, web designer/developer.
All via a place I used to call home, Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. Check them out.
Shore pound photo opp
Wild photo. Wild concept. Clark Little is into taking pics of waves as they are breaking. More.
Photography as an activism onramp
I’ve always believed that everyone, every single person, can be part of our coastal conservation movement.
That belief is fuel for me everyday as I ponder how we can plug more and more people into this movement. What will it take to get this person to value our coasts? What are the issues that would hook [...]
From the eyes of a surfer: Dane Peterson captures Belinda Baggs
I think the above image captures the sport of surfing as much… or more… than any other single image I’ve seen. More than Gerry at Pipe. More than Curren’s schoolbook cutty. This image captures something that most images of surfing don’t. It captures joy.
The one image that comes to mind as something that goes beyond [...]
