I know well that feeling of anxiety that produces to see a wave report like magicseaweed or surf forecast with predictions of epic days and perfect conditions. it's there when I get ready my camera and my table and I want to sleep early so that it arrives fast the next day ... then the indecision catches me if I surf first or I take pictures hahahaha there is always time for the 2 things.
I usually take pictures before entering the water and in that way I study the swell, the currents of return and the tides ... then I keep my camera and after a previous warm-up I go to the water ....
How good it is to be a surf photographer ...
Big and perfect Waves
Good photos, good work ...
I almost never get any sleep when the swell is going to be big!
