This is a photo that I snapped of surfer/shaper Tyler Hatzikian on a borrowed Nikon F film camera with a 500mm mirror telephoto lens with a fixed f8 aperture.

This is a portrait I took of Wave Dave, an El Porto surfer, standing next to his old Ranchero after a session at El Porto.  He is a super nice guy, but he’ll never admit to it.  He can get a bit grumpy about the crowds, but he does it in a way that makes you smile.  And he likes to wear his surf trunks over his wetsuit.  Gotta love Wave Dave.
