The Waves of Hawaii and Objects of Appreciation

Objects of Appreciation

Every time you go to use a utensil or instrument, take pleasure and feel gratitude for the fact that you have such an object available. If you focus on this, you'll be able to be lifted many many times each day.

Some common examples include: a pen, fork, cup, key, computers, clock, chair, stapler, and eyeglasses.

The Waves of  Hawaii


Waimea  Bay shore-break surfing pioneer, husband, and father of two,  Clark Little

has gained nationwide recognition for his photography with appearances on

Good Morning America,Inside Edition, and many local news stations across the  U.S.

Clark Little on Good Morning  America (2009):

It all started in 2007 when  Clark's wife wanted a nice piece of art to decorate a wall.

Voluntarily,  Clark grabbed a camera, jumped in the water, and starting snapping

away capturing the beauty and power of monstrous Hawaiian waves from the inside

out.

" Clark's view" is a unique view of the ocean that most will only be able to experience

safely on land while studying one of  Clark's photos.  

Now with a camera upgrade and an itch to get that better shot,  Clark has taken this

on full time and has moved his office from land, to the inside of a barrel. Since the

recent stir of  Clark's work, his images have been run on the Today Show, ABC World

News Now, Nature's Best Photography,  Paris Match (France), La Vie ( France),

Hana Hou (Hawaiian Airlines) magazine, Surfer magazine, Surfer's Journal as well

as multiple publishers and newspapers in the  U.S. and overseas.

 

These incredible images of waves in the Hawaiian Islands were taken by  Clark Little, the number one photographer of surf.

He is dedicated to photographing the waves and has published a selection of his best images.

He captures magical moments inside the tube as surfers say.

This shot captures sand from the ocean's floor being swept up by a monstrous wave and resembles a sandstorm.

Little calls it the Sandmonster.

There were clouds of sand ten feet high and I'm standing there.

I'm holding on to my camera and my trigger as long as I can.

Then I have to jump into the cloud of sand to try to get out of danger's way.

His fans pay as much as $4,000 for his gorgeous photos.

This shot is his favorite.

With a high shutter speed he caught the brilliant fanned effect of two waves  intersecting each other and throwing out this beautiful fan of water.
