Photography and Surfing Whats In Common

Surfing the internet is one thing , Yet Surfing the waves is another, its 
 quite enjoyable to watch surfing from the sidelines as I get to do when I get the time to drive 500 miles to the Coastal Bend area of Corus Christi, Texas. I think as a photogrpaher who has watched these surfer's for well over 7 years, that people mis-understand these guys and gals. They are not trying to win anything by sufring the waves, Yes some are competative and are looking for a Billabong award or this or that sponsor, but the true surfer is there for that wave, Just like I am there for that shot, I want the perfect shot as a phtotgrpaher , and it just gets better every time I get a chance to go and shoot these peolple, They are not a bunch of long haired pot smoking hippies, though there are a few, most of the drugs are in the cars watching what they could be doing if they were not so high, . The Police bother the surfers sometimes and the sufrers piss off thie police, Shark infested waters makes it for a public tragedy once in a while of course yet very rarely happens,. I never saw an incident in 7 years, . I have shot six year olds up to 95 year old people surfing, and not one altercation except a sting from a ray on ocassion to telll them hey were in the water. Yet life goes on Helll you could get hit by a damn car walking across the street. More Later. Christopher Hyer 2.2.2011
