  • A Sad day for the Surf World | Andy Irons Passes

    He was one of the greats in the world of surfing. He will be missed:

    The other day i headed out to the beach to snap a couple photos at the beach. It was a very nice fall day here on the Outer Banks so i headed out to see what i could find.

  • Patagonia Crew in Cape Hatteras, NC

    BRYANELKUS_196953
    The Patagonia Crew has been in town for the last week. A few of us had the opportunity to head up there for dinner and drinks throughout the week. It was a blast every time we went up there. They have a great group of guys and the product is looking amazing too. They spent the week showing off the new gear/clothing lines, surfing, and some even learned to kite (…and liked it). Last night was most of their last in Cape Hatteras for this trip so I wanted to grab a couple fun photos before they all took off.

  • Fall Slick Kiteboarding Session

    BRYANELKUS_195565
    We had a great night with the REAL Watersports Team in The Slick the last few nights. Tonight was particularly fun, I made it out to shoot for about 20 minutes before the light went completely bad. I was playing around with motion blur for a while until the sun decided to peak through the clouds for an all time Cape Hatteras fall sunset. The guys/gals did their thing until the sun was gone. Everyone scored a few great shots!

  • Skate Session at the LGB Bowl

    BRYANELKUS_194979
    Everyone had a great skate session tonight. With the cooler temperatures brings us some of the nicest days of the year. Everyone was out enjoying themselves this Saturday. There was some small surf, wakeboarding and skateboarding going on today. I’m still on the sidelines with my ankle out of service for a while longer but it gave me an opportunity to shoot some skating for a change.

  • Moon Rising in Cape Hatteras

    Moonrise
    On my walk home from work tonight, I had a terrific view of the moon rising over the dunes.  It was great to see but sad to know the days of session / seeing after work are now over for a while.

    After a great weekend of friends, family, Fall weather, the cider mill and some football in Michigan, Mel and I made our way back to Cape Hatteras, NC. This time we drove. We split the trip up into two days so we could head a bit further south than usual to check out some more of the mountains. Here are some of views from the car!

    We dominated the Fall issue of Kiteboarding EU with 7 of the 8 photos. It is so good to see everyone’s really hard work paying off. The riders were pushing their limits and my crew was always up to lend a hand to get the shot. Thanks Everyone!!!

    Andre Phillip, Dre, and I also linked up for a couple fun kiteskating sessions. This was one of my favorite shots from this session. The bottom right shot on the other page was during the 2010 Triple-S Invitational. PS that 7 of Dre’s above my shot is unreal!
