Cody Leutgens in the Outer Banks. This day was pretty close to perfect. It was sunny all day and there were green barrels everywhere you looked.

View from below in Georgetown Bahamas. If you look close you can see the hook stuck on the reef and you can follow the line all the way back to the boat in the upper part of the composition.

Chasing stingrays at Hamburger Beach in the Bahamas. This stingray would approach your feet, beg for food and make his rounds to everyone in the water.
Santa Teressa, Costa Rica; This image was taken from the balcony of a cabin we stayed in that was infested with bats that kept us up all night.
Cody Leutgens speedblur barrel in NC. I like this photo because it looks like a reef break somewhere in the South Pacific.

Henry Martinez color contrast at Backwash Beach in the Osa Peninsula of Costa Rica. I told him this shot would probably be used in a magazine. He was such a friendly Tico. I want to go back and take him a copy one day; used in Line Up Magazine

Slater Powell backlit air at Pandulce in the jungle of Costa Rica. This was our last session here before we had to venture back up the coast. Leaving this place gets more difficult every time; used in Line Up Magazine.
Slater Powell's "Who Da Guy" shot for ESM. If I hadn't have gone under he would have landed on me. He makes lining up for water photos at a beachbreak look easy.

Cody Leutgens at the Surf City Pier, NC. I had to slide my camera under the fence and climb it myself to get this photo. The pier was closed and locked up for the winter, but there is no stopping a determined photographer.
Slater Powell sunset boost at Masonboro Island, NC. Slater is an exciting surfer to watch much less photograph.
Tres Palmas, Puerto Rico; This was a fun trip that I actually got to surf more than shoot on.
