As the lensman for Driftwood Photography Studios, I’ve been working really hard lately on an entry submission for an upcoming grant aimed at surf photography/surf photographers.
It’s through the Follow the Light Foundation, which was started in memory of renowned/pioneering surf photographer Larry “Flame” Moore. Winner gets a nice chunk of cash to be put towards furthering your photography career, in whatever way the winner thinks will best benefit them. Pretty great!
This year’s entry took a variation from previous years…instead of a straight image and essay entry, entrants had to create a slideshow to music. Here is a slightly tweaked version of the slideshow/images I used in my entry, which I sent out this past Monday (5/17/2010). Finalists are announced towards the end of June, and the winner is announced at the 2010 US Open of Surfing in Huntington Beach this August.
