Lands End - Ocean Beach - San Francisco California - December 2015 - ArthurA
Sometimes, the ocean is powerful and incredibly frightening. The act of pushing yourself and overcoming that fear to ride the earth’s energy, offer’s up it’s own category of joy in the form of adrenaline. Because of this, most surfers complain about summer due to the generally more nurturing conditions. However, I recently took a friend out to learn, and was reminded of something I had almost forgotten. The silence. The relaxing flow felt from the gentle movement of the water. The blue to orange gradients in the sky as the sun fades away. What am I saying? Powerful waves are powerful, sure. But the moments in-between moments are just as powerful, if not more. -Arthur
