As many of my UHH friends know, I LOVE to photograph surfers and also the lifestyle that surrounds the beach and the surfers. I've been looking through thousands of my archive photos and have chosen some hand picked ones that I believe you will enjoy. Since I have so many and the UHH admin has a limit of 10 photos per submission I will submit several "chapters" of these photos. These are all from my "Huntington Beach, CA" archives. If you like these, keep coming back and there will be more to check out in the future. I hope you enjoy them!
This particular chapter has a focus of the Vans surfing contest with the best surfers in the world competing.
Of course, all the photos look best in download mode!
Here are the previous six chapters:

Excellent action shots, Brent!

The surfers in numbers 1, 5, and 9 have developed some sort of gravity defying mechanism, unless of course they ended up grubbing in the next moment after the shutter clicked.

Incredible surfer shots. Love the action. Wouldn’t love the crowded beach, but I understand why so many want to be there.

Brent, your surfing pictures are always top-notch and entertaining. They are not only well composed but convey the excitement of the event.

Brent these are beautiful shots "AS USUAL"!!! Make my days (1972-74) on that beach seem like yesterday. I had a great time in So. Cal. but I am glad I don't live in Calif. today. When I lived there, life was different. Not that I don't love Calif., because I always will, but life is different today.

Anyway..."These shots are GREAT...AND BRINGS BACK LOTS OF GREAT MEMORIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Thanks,
Boone.

Having lived in Surf City for years and now residing in Montana your images bring back some great memories. Having surfed the pier for decades back in my glory days I long for those days again. Thanks for bringing them home.


Great Tommy........I'm glad the photos could remind you and bring back some memories of the good ol days!
