Golden Horizon
An eruption of motion, tones, and light in this motion panorama captivates the viewer. Shot around 30 minutes before sunrise on the east of the main island of Okinawa after a night of wild camping in the Yambaru region.
Tubed
Inside the falling lip of a wave along the Sunabe Seawall. Even smaller waves like this can pack a punch if you're not careful. Hence the protective helmet whenever I set out to snag this kind of imagery.
The Fold
When two bands of energy meet at opposing angles they can, at times, create unique little peaking waves that can collapse as eloquently as they rise. All in the blink of an eye.
Backwash Creation
A totally unique and aesthetically wild result of a backwash collision on an incoming wave. Shot in the very early morning hours on the west coast of the island allowed me to get sunrise colors on the final image.
Green Barrel
A small rolling wave conveys a magical image of uncontrolled energy. The beauty of any wave is that it is, like a fingerprint, totally unique in its design and imprint. Just as nature intended.
It’s Alive
An ocean swell morphs the liquid of an arriving energy band into something that looks like it's emerging from the depths, awakening. getting ready to unleash it's power onto the Okinawa coastline.
