Captured Connect

Alex Frings and I hadn’t had a surf together for a while. Life gets busy. The surf hadn’t been that good anyway.

After checking the surf early, with a brief westerly blowing, and what looked to be a couple little womb weavers, I gave Alex the call. It was time to re-connect through his love for water photography, and my love of going surfing.

As we made our way out, with dark shadows of seaweed shape-shifting with our imagination, we thought a little dream session was on the cards. We bobbed around on the peak of a high tide with very little to capture. There began the connect.

So often in life you think a moment is going to mean one thing and it means another. For us this morning it was more about two friends catching up on the gossip. The ocean gave us the opportunity to chat.

Then a couple days later, Alex sent me these two shots. A beautiful bonus to a great morning.
