Tidal

"Tide" the alternate rising and falling of the sea. The constant flow of the ocean often mirrors the movements of our own lives. The ups and the downs, the good and the bad, the light and the dark. Like the ocean, our lives are constantly moving, constantly evolving and shifting in a new direction with often unexpected and unpredictable waves hitting us along the way. This shot was conceptually formed to resemble those moments in time in, showing that every moment of darkness is followed by a wave of light. The harsh contrast between the light and the dark, split with a perfectly formed wave bridging the gap between the two. This piece was captured in Australia, on the coast of Sydney's iconic Bondi Beach. After chasing the surf and the sunrise for close to 2 years this idea finally started to take shape. The ocean is a melody that never stays in one place, so why should we?
