Artist's Comments

The last photo in my series, here we see a surfer experiencing the classic 'wipe out'. I figured this would be a fitting photo to end my series on, since it both illustrates ending and shows that not everyone gets the best of a wave. In fact, all of the surfers there wiped out at some point or another while I was at Pipeline, even the ones in my photos. Yet they all kept on surfing, despite however much the Ocean toppled them. Perhaps that is the real charm in surfing that bewitches us so? It's not the breath-taking beaches or the awesome power of the waves. Nor even the skills of the surfers themselves, but instead the sheer determination of them to keep trying and trying to master the waves, if only to do so for a fleeting moment....
