Книга Waves: Pro Surfers and Their World

Аннотация к книге "Waves: Pro Surfers and Their World"

A vibrant celebration of surfers in and out of the water from an award-winning photographer



Professional photographer Thom Gilbert spent four years among surfer
royalty at the top of their game-in Spain, New York, California, and
Hawaii-with his camera trained not only on tiny figures disappearing in
the waves, but also on the surfers' faces and bodies back on land. He
returned from the beaches with intimate portraits of the world's
best-from the newest talent to the oldest and most revered-and also with
dramatic action shots and revealing images of the culture around this
sport and lifestyle. The book features not only 300 photographs, but
some Q&As with, and hand-written contributions from, prominent
figures in the scene. Ultimately, Waves is an ode to surfing and to the men and women who live it every day.
