THE STORY

Inspired by the West coast sunset at Piha Beach, New Zealand. The drama within the drama was technically challenging because of the low light conditions. And as I had no tripod, I had to rest the camera on a fence post and work out how to best crop the scene and the embers I saw. I have left the print slightly soft pixellated for special effects enhancing the mood I felt.

Piha is a world-famous Auckland beach known for its surf breaks and multiple rescues. The strong rips created by large swells rolling in from the Tasman Sea create dangerous undercurrents. This part of New Zealand’s west coast is extremely rugged, wildly moody and very photogenic. The appeal of this panorama ocean view as interior decoration on canvas and corrugated iron motivated a commercial interest.

I think it would look good in a flat or business for ex-pat Kiwis in London, New York, Sydney or Tokyo. It would bring back memories of many a good summer surf session. Maybe even the Westies in Auckland, who knows the feeling of a body so totaled from a stocked day in the water would appreciate the photo. With great swell conditions still pumping and the dream of one more amped ride before total dark this work would stir great memories.

Sometimes there is not enough light in the day and this canvass reproduction will draw on those good session memories.
