Sunset Sliders
As summer slowly winds to an end, the people of Byron Bay have been taking advantage of the late afternoon’s golden sun and the perfect little rollers at the pass. Spending most afternoon and evenings in the water, watching as the sun sets and golden light bathes the whole bay while sets roll in and sliders do their thing. These are the Sunset Sliders.

Photographing the world’s most iconic surf break is no laughing matter. In fact, to swim out, camera in hand, at the Banzai Pipeline, on the North Shore of Oahu, is potentially fatal. At least ten surfers have died since Pipeline (one of the worlds most dangerous waves) was first ridden in 1961, and in 2005, the ultra-fast, super-shallow reef break claimed the life, for the first time, of a photographer.

I grew up on a vineyard in the Pemberton region of SW Western Australia. It was a great way to grow up, always walking through the bush, making cubbies, swimming and playing by the river.
