Puerto Rico's Backdoor in perfect form. 

Diving with Captain Goop Charters, we encountered this school of blue runners and bull sharks off the coast of Vero Beach, Florida.

This is one of the craziest experiences of my life, summer of ‘18. I dove about 30ft down when i ran into the school of blue runners. i started photographing them when I saw this 6ft bull shark emerge from the thick cloud of fish. I spent the next 45 seconds or so filming it and photographing it until i was out of breathe from the chase and it was time for air again.

You can watch this experience in my video “Spears and Sharks” Linked to my YouTube Channel.

As Dorian finally passed north up the coast of Florida, leaving death and destruction behind in the Bahamas, it gave the central coast of Florida the longest running lefts I’ve ever seen.

Just passing byeeee…

Its not often that you can find such a perfectly formed barrel such as this on the East Coast. This glassy tube has earned a spot in my top favorites and is sold as one of my Limited Edition Fine Art Prints, currently available on Glass and Aluminum.

A unique view of the inside of a barrel as the lip of the wave closes in on my housing. This split second timing created an image that I have not seen the likes of. I often try to mimmic it, but have not succeeded in doing so. The next moment the barrel fell on my housing crushing it into my face.... ouch. Well worth the effort. Vero Beach, FL. Spring 2014.
