I talked to Clark early this AM and he said it's COLD up there.     His story is pretty amazing and he and I got started with our passions around the same time.    We used to talk about doing something we had passion for a few years before we really did it.   Now we laugh about actually finding it when we least expected it.

After a newspaper article in the UK his website went from 30K hits a day to over 600K within one day then GMA called him up to be on the show...    All kinds of people all over the world want his stuff and rightfully so.    His work is unique and the best quality water shots I've ever seen.     I have almost all his stuff from day one he's e-mailed me.    I got some SICK stuff no ones seen that is just below print quality but insane still.    I'm stoked at his success...   

This is the first shot on GMA...   I took this about a week ago...


This was from one of his first sessions with a decent camera.   


He got me in a tiny one...


This is sorta cool...   Almost the same moment from shore and from his lens...

Saw the bit on GMA as well, these are the kind of images that are more like poetry then photography...so exceptional!

Is he any relation to Brock Little, the big wave surfer? He kind of looks a bit like him in the video.

Clark goes out in very heavy conditions and I haven't been there to shoot it yet.     All the days I shoot him it's small...   Check some of these out...

He shoots killer surf shots too...


This thing is just crazy how it's stacking up to unleash some serious whoop a$$!!


This poor soul captured in the "OH SH*T!" moment...



You could stand arms over your head and not touch the ceiling of this cave...


A beautiful tunnel...

Here's back when Clark was still using a rinky dink point and shoot.    Getting absolutely exploded is fun to him...   Like his brother, he's kinda nuts if you ask me.

OMG those are absolutely gorgeous... I think my fav is the one that shows the sand sucking up.. One thing when you see picks like this is you start actually looking way more closely at things... makes you more aware I think... a gift for sure.  I know sometimes I get totally mesmerized by the action of the water at times...

I went to his website and all of his shots are great, but some are just amazing.
