I haven't spent too much time this winter on my logs. Looking forward to getting re-acquainted with the simplicity of the slide. It seems this winter did not bring too many of those classic wispy off shore winds with a playful background swell. The top board is a 9'10 cooperdesign rincon foil and the bottom board is my 9'8 malibu foil II
Seems like as of late the east coast hullmo is a dying breed; While one of the species' variants has gone the way of the fish, some of the other species members are still quite resilient, robust and resistant to the evolution patterns of extinction. Here is one of the merry band of NY Hullmo contemplating if it's "really a hull wave". I know they don't really work in our beach break conditions- only the indoctrinated smile with the knowledge...
I have been processing a bit of film as of late, so some new images to come- shot this one at sunrise on a day with quite abit of swell. I love that first peak of sun over the horizon.
Many thanks to Billy Patron (AKA Bar Bill) for documenting an insane night at FuelTV's Focus on Art Party. Good company and an overall great vibe at the event. Super impressed with Andy Kessler installation of Skate NYC history. I especially loved a bowl sequence from way back in the day. 
Tomorrow night, I'll be part of Fuel TV's Focus on Art exhibit that is part of the week long event Fuel is putting on in NYC. Should be some interesting people at the event. Other photographers will include Tommy "Snapwater" Colla, Matt Clark, Rob from Loggin' and Bloggin' and others. Again, many many thanks to the guys at MolluskNYC for keeping me in the loop. Pretty sure it will be a good time. Hopefully people dig the work!!
I gotta bunch of rolls to process, kinda lazy tonight, not up for the chemicals. New images coming within the next couple of days.
The outline of the subject/reflection in this photograph reminds me of my training with the Rorschach Psychodiagnostic Inkblot Test. I never took much stock in the predictive validity and inter-rater reliability of instrument, but the cards are fascinating. I really like the interplay between the leashline and its reflection. I know, I can already here the comment ("Why is he wearing a leash?").
early morning fog shot from a sand crab perspective.. the waves have been so good around here over the last week- plently of good moods are being had.
A new addition to the diagnositic criteria for Obsessive-CompHULLsive Disorder: persistent thoughts and feelings that you are Steve Krajewski AKA Bojorquez, despite the fact that you are not in Malibu but rather in a very un-point like east coast beach break. That said I will take my neurosis as long as I can keep my Hulls. Very good surf in our parts today- rare off shores all day and a decent lil ground swell- the hull was a hummin' 
I surfed a good part of today completely alone...such a nice opportunity to check in with the flow of mental activity. Sometimes being alone in the line-up allows the mind to open up like the horizon.
I kind of dig this photograph-as it seems to captures that moment when everyone has decided that they have surfed enough for the given session.
I was mesmorized by how this wave zips down the line in a machine like efficient manner- a true amusement park ride!
my favorite time of the day. unfortunately not much was happening inthe way of waves.
These are the last decent shots I got from a incredible day a couple of weeks ago. The light was kinda funky for the majority of the morning, but occasionally a nice diffused light emerged. Memories are still floating through my mindspace. 
Just another group of junkies/surf zombies at the daily dawn of the dead early morning surf check. Good to see they are observing the bike lane.
Wouldn't it be nice to have this wave consistently?-it's going in my direction.
Happy Birthday, Pjay!! Hope your day is all that you could hope for!! 
The relatively good weekend of waves and warm weather, makes me quite hopeful that spring is arriving soon. So looking forward to the spring swell season.
the experience of surfing for me starts way before I actually enter the water. Often it starts the night before with wind, tide and swell forecasts. Pre-dawn waking and the process of picking boards to bring down to the beach heighten the anticipation. Most often the anticipation is at its peak as I approach my first glimspe of the ocean- i love this moment as feelings of hope outweigh the thoughts of doubt!!
Its nice to be able to occasionally grab a vantage point that is suitable to shooting surfing with a diana camera. I was able to set up on a seawall to catch guys making these nice take-offs. Still trying to figure out a way to modify a telephoto with a crappy plastic lens.
Sunrise, incoming tide and good things to come.
How often is your sleep disrupted in anticipation of good swell? This is kinda the image that plays with my mind in the early pre-dawn hours. The photograph is from a little day trip to the west coast(west of the hudson that is) a week and a half ago. More to come over the next couple of days. Hopefully our last snow storm of the year has passed.
I have been spending a little more time on the skate lately. I really like my little sector nine flex-deck with big ass glidey wheels. Its like riding a hull!! My neighbors are thoroughly perplexed with my inability to act my age. Finally got some decent waves today- great to be back on the Liddle M3p.
