Childhood Stoke


I recently unearthed a box of old photos.

My very first water shots (plus one)...




These were taken with the bright yellow Minolta Weathermatic camera I got for my 14th birthday. They must be from the summer of '85, the year I transitioned from a sponge to a surfboard and had my first stand up rides. I love the expressions of pure stoke in the top two. Doesn't really matter that it is waist deep and ankle high. Joy is where you find it.
