(Nikon D2x + 12-24 f/4 + other mixed lenses + Aquatech housing) Surf photography is something that is so difficult to do because when the surf is good, I’d rather surf. That would explain why even though I’ve had the housing for such a long time, I don’t have that much to show for it. Here are a few of my favorites over the years. For a tip I’d suggest strong swimming ability, knowledge of the surf, a good pair of flippers (a.k.a. fins) and willingness to get really cold in the winter months. Keeping the housing in really good condition is essential, most insurances won’t pay for a flooded housing caused by stupidity. I had the housing let in water once in the Cook Islands – thankfully I noticed before it was too late but it was a difficult task to get back to shore over a sharp reef and big lagoon (while holding the heavy housing high out of the water).
