This post is a little bit late but I’ve been at sea so I’ve been out of touch for a bit. I am honored to have another image in this months issue of Islands Magazine from a photo shoot I did for Niviuk paragliders in Mozambique last year. We discovered a 17 mile sand dune that had never been flown before. It was an amazing trip and I’m psyched.
I know this has been up on the internet for awhile but just wanted to post it here for the few people might not have seen it. It’s beautifully shot and beautifully narrated. The combination make it a must see. Get inspired to get out there and shoot beautiful things.
For those of you who don’t know how I spend most of my time throughout the year, I am the photographer onboard The Best Odyssey which is a 5 yr. world kiteboarding expedition via a 60ft catamaran. Needless to say we get to do a lot of cool sports in very interesting places. So last week I posted (on the Offshore Odysseys website) some photos and a slideshow from our expedition highlights in 2010. We got so much positive feedback from it, that I thought I’d also share it with you guys.
This week National Geographic announced their picks for the 2010 Adventurer of the Year. Each year a select few are nominated for his or her extraordinary achievement in exploration, conservation, and adventure sports. This year my friend Jamie Mitchell is being nominated for his excellence in the sport of Stand Up Paddleboarding. In 2010 Jamie won the epic race across Hawaii’s Molokai Channel for the ninth year in a row. Not only is he an amazing waterman and ambassador to the sport but he’s also a great guy. In April I photographed Jamie killing it on some great wave sessions in the Maldive Islands. Below is an image from one of these sessions. It headlines National Geographic’s Adventurer of the Year Gallery. Check it out and vote for your favorite adventurer of the year.
