good morning. 5 am and things are brewing up in the north pacific. i’m getting excited! but before that, got a few more things to do before i leave hawaii. gotta get going. have a nice day…
last time i was in japan, atsuko-san taught me something very important. she said “kirby, you have to spear the fish in the gills, or close to the head.” she told me the sashimi tastes much better when the fish bleeds instantly. so when i’m waiting down 40′ on the bottom of the ocean, i can hear atsuko-san talking to me. and i won’t take the shot unless it’s in the right spot. if i took these 2 fish to atsuko-san, she’d be proud of me….
the bali video is coming out soon. check out little 11 year old girl ren-chan. she was surfing against the boys and actually beat a few. i saw her surfing at the roxy pro last month and gosh, she was ripping!! future grand champion? somebody want to bet me? i know talent when i see it, and ren-chan has talent…
if you asked me when i started shooting surfing photos that someday i’d be shooting beautiful models in bikinis, i’d tell you to get out of here. people think it’s easy but it’s not. my lens gets fogged up all the time? why is that? haha. just joking… working with these models was really fun. they were really professional and easy to work with. the photos came out much better than i thought and i wanted to thank tiare and the girls for working so hard! can’t wait to do it again! oh wait, i forgot photo shoot for vol. 4 is today! i better get going!!!
**CHECK OUT VOL. 3 BIKINI SECTION….
