More Moor Meanderings
It’s the end of summer and here’s the the way August has played out so far with warm downpours and gusty blows. In-between times there’s been big skies and solitary walks up on the moor. A reminder to all locals that you can escape the traffic jams, the Georgeham double decker bus queue, the Mortehoe […]
Giant Deadly Flamingo Sunsets
May 19, 2020
Untitled (Giant Deadly Flaming Flamingos) As lockdown slowly eases, And our splendid isolation is breached. By hordes of infected second-home owners, And their flamingo rings at the beach: We anxiously await the second-wave of contagion. Not by some valkyrie or eeauch. But by some Condescending men with Audis and shorts, coloured peach . With […]
The last autumn swell
December 2, 2018
A weekend of pumping surf in North Devon was a nice way to say goodbye to the autumn of 2018. So stoked to get this one (below) published in Carve Magazine as a double page spread, the point at Main beach firing. (Issue 192 btw). XT-3 w/ 16-55mm & 100-400mm Just got back from […]
Oktober Projeckt: Surf
October 1, 2016
One photo every day in Oktober; scroll down for latest image. Click to engorge. I haven’t taken many photos lately. Much to my shame: Work and other commitments have got in the way of ‘my essential contentment of futile wanderings’ with the camera. So, to try to re-ignite the flame ( & justify the purchase […]
Lynmouth in Black & White
February 5, 2014
Big swell today with gusting, blustery strong winds tearing into it, and rain. This double overhead set went through Blacklands today totally unmolested by any surfers. In the old days of transparency film and in the light of the mantra “tight and bright” from editors, we didnt used to shoot (and waste film) on overcast […]
Happy New Year Slabhunters..
January 1, 2014
..lets hope it’s a peaceful one with plenty of swell. Here in North Devon the weather did nothing to help relieve the festive hangover, it was damp and windy and the fields are knee deep in mid-winter mud, not suitable for a gentle perambulation, but with a mahoosive swell running; it was ideal for slab […]
Love to Dream on
December 16, 2013
Here’s a thing. I love a well crafted HDR pic the same as the next peep, really. But. Not every fookin pic you take….. you know. It gets, well…. lets say; samey (not a real word) or more commonly known as (yawn) boring…..I say. Lets not kill the HDR goose. Here’s another thing, with the […]
Marvellous March
March 29, 2012
What can I say that already hasn’t been said over the social networks this past week. A week of offshores, warm weather and some pretty bloody decent surf too; not bad for Blighty in the summer months, but in March – unheard of – but not unwelcome. An unusual combination of a seeming trapped low […]
Readers poll and happy holidays
December 19, 2011
With Chrimbo just around the corner and this blog being nearly a year old I thought it would be appropriate not only to say thanks to everyone for reading my inane ramblings over the past year (and leaving your comments) but also to wish everyone a merry, peaceful holiday and best wishes for a surf […]
Tribute to Russ
November 11, 2011
Congratulations to Russell Winter who won three titles yesterday in one epic day of surfing at a thumping Fistral Beach, which was a strength-sapping and grinding 4 – 8 feet and classic conditions for the season deciding final event on the UK Pro Surf Tour. Russ won the final Relentless Energy Drink Super Series contest […]
