Brown W Cannon III North

Surf Culture on the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii

In addition to his editorial work for commercial clients such as Travel & Leisure, Condé Nast and National Geographic, Oregon-based photographer Brown W. Cannon III has been a surfer for over three decades. This stunning volume compiles a series he has been working on for more than six years that captures the powerful allure of the surf culture on the North Shore of O'ahu, Hawai'i. In addition to studio portraiture of surfers, lifeguards, surfboard shapers, photographers, bodysurfers and bodyboarders, he includes action shots of his subjects scanning the horizon and then catching and flying down the line on 40-foot waves. Focused on the specific stretch of coast known as the Seven Mile Miracle, his images paint a stunning portrait of one of the most legendary proving grounds for big wave watermen and women.
