Road to Hana

Road to Hana

The Road to Hana is truly a crazy road filled with one lane bridges, tight corners, sharp C turns and Beautiful Waterfalls. The Road is only around 30Miles, but due to the limited speed and road conditions the road takes almost 2 hrs to navigate.

 

Here are some shots from the trekk!

JAWS

JAWS

Yesterday we ventured to JAWS! A nice early morning wake up was met with a beautiful sunrise and some killer waves. The swells where between 20-27ft or so and building. Upon arriving at Jaws, you realize how far the waves really are form the shoreline. You basically stand on a cliff overlooking the water and have to jockey for position with all the crowds and photographers that are already set up. Apparently when JAWS is going off, people fly in from all around the world to surf its swells.

I started shooting with my 300mm 2.8 lens and my Nikon D4s, but then soon realized that I needed more resolution and switched out to my Nikon D800.

It is hard to explain how amazing it looks to see massive waves rolling in and tiny little ant looking riders paddling into them unassisted.

 

Here are some pic's from the morning!

Remembrance Day 2014

Remembrance Day 2014

I headed down to the West Vancouver Cenotaph (Memorial Arch), for the Nov 11th Remembrance Day Ceremony. Unlike our typical rainy November days, the sky's where clear and there was a massive crowed that gathered to pay their respects and give thanks to those who have fought for our country.  There was defiantly an increased police presence, but I think the West Van Police Dept, did a great job and I think that their increased presence was almost unnoticable for the most part.

Here is a gallery of images from the Ceremony!
