“Getting tossed around by shorebreak and slammed into the sand day after day is a rough go; Clark Little wouldn’t have it any other way. In fact, for the North Shore local, it’s all in a good day’s work. But the Waimea addict didn’t grow up snapping shots with his father’s camera like so many photographers do. He instead set out to capture his longtime stomping grounds when his wife came home with a framed photograph of Waimea shorebreak, an image he figured he would be able to easily replicate. Having never owned a camera, he threw a cheap “waterproof” casing over a cheaper point-and-shoot and headed out to the beach. Since that first attempt, Clark has not only emulated his wife’s purchased wall art, but — with a gallery in Haleiwa and international recognition — has become a heavily respected fixture of wave photography.”

WOW!! These pictures are amazing..I love how he defines himself at the end as “a pretty hyper guy” – I’d say he’s phenomenally talented and pretty fearless (even tho’ he acknowledges that at times he’s afraid)..

Fascinating! If only photography was that easy, he makes it sound so simple. At least he admitted to being beaten up a bit by the sea! 😉

I was thinking the same thing Suzy. I would get swamped 1x by monster wave and I think that would be enough for me…

Incredible imagery–you feel the savagery of some of these waves and at the same time are completely taken in by their beauty. And like everyone else, I am drawn in by his passion and humility. But better him than me…I would be absolutely freaking out if I was pinned to the sea floor by multiple waves. Once would be more than enough….
