Appalachian Trail

With the week off between Christmas and New Years I have had a fair amount of free time. I have taken a few opportunities to learn my new camera setup, the Sony A7ii. One of the biggest factors that drove me the camera was the size and weight. I found most of the time I didn’t want to carry my canon it was because of the size. My goal is to have the camera with me more, and thus take more pictures. With rather warm weather for December, Josh and I decided to lace up the boots and go for an overnight trip. We managed to stay warm enough and start the year off on the right foot. Coffee always tastes better after a night in the woods.

Assateague

Surfing is full of so many emotions, but what draws me to it the most is how when you’re in the water, nothing else really matters. It’s just you and the ocean. Aside from the occasional hoot and holler when your buddies snag a good one, or busting their balls for missing the big one, there are still moments of solitude.

Everyday I look photo’s from guys like Chris Burkard, Zak Noyle, Morgan Maassen, Andy Bardon and I am jealous of them being in the water with their camera. Saturday marked the first time I took my camera out into the line up. The ocean and waves presented a whole new challenge when trying to capture an image, but I loved every second of it. I swam in a pair of borrowed fins until I cramped up. Pure stoke and can’t wait to do it again.

This weekend was great, good company, good weather, good waves, couldn’t ask for more.

Need to order a few more accessories from Outex but I already ordered a set of fins!!
