From The Archives

Every now and then David sifts through his archives and pulls out some images that he is found of. He was telling me that the 2008 winter session at Black's was one of his favorites. Here are a series from that swell. The first one is a classic. He shot that image and didn't even know the dolphin was in it until he got home. Enjoy.

Great Shots of Black's

Here are a bunch David took at Black's over the weekend. You might have noticed that he got a bunch of images on Surfline. If not, take a look.  There are a lot of great shots of San Diego.

All shots are of Black's.

Heavy Water - Road trip to Black's 12/5/07

When north county starts to get shut down David packs up and heads to Black's where, perched on the bluff,  he shoots all the action. David has been shooting Black's for a couple of years now.  If you were out when it was huge in the last couple of years, you should contact him since he has a gigantic archive. He might just have you.

When David shared these with me he sent me this email about the last shot. 

Ed, here is a little note on this last shot. That first wave in the
front is about 4' the middle wave is like 8' and that outside one is
in the OMG I'm in hell 18' - 20' range! The tide was high and between

this coming at you from the front and the bluff towering over you from 

the back at 300' wet and crumbling and the sea mist formed from these 

giant waves it was a real sight to see. I've never seen anything like it here
