Hurricane Edouard's late August Swell. /  by Nathaniel Harrington

Chauncey Robinson found the nugget of the morning with this one. Featured now on ESM. 

With this swell came the goods. Above is Chauncey Robinson's perfect barrel ride durring the quick visit from Hurricane Edouard, and below is his brother, Wiley Robinson's epic air reverse. 

There were a million jellyfish in the water and it was painful to shoot, but still very worth the stings. 

 

Check out the link to see what else was happening on the east coast during the end days of August in the ESM Feature.

Prepping for La Tabla Vero /  by Nathaniel Harrington

I'm in process of getting some prints ready for a new cafe here in Vero Beach. This is a 10x15 going into a 16x20 frame, cut and matted by myself. Stoked! 

 

I'll keep everyone posted as the progress continues with the Cafe and my art.

"The Drop" has been Installed. /  by Nathaniel Harrington

 I recently took an order for my photo "The Drop", designed the layout for a dyptic, and it now proudly sits as the center piece in its new home. 

 "The Drop" is a 30"x72" panoramic crop from a wave I recently shot at Sebastian Inlet one beautiful, colorful, morning. It is a 1 1/2" border, two 15"x72" pieces, B&W on top, Full color on bottom. This canvas looks good! 

I couldn't be happier with the outcome, and the buyers are thrilled! 

I have labeled this as 1/5 pieces meaning that there are still 4 up for grabs. Contact me if you are interested either in this print or any other images. 


Special thanks to the Ares family for their support and creativity in making this happen.

Tatum Harrington with The Sea and Me. /  by Nathaniel Harrington

Tatum and I have again had the fun chance to work together for a small jewelry maker, The Sea and Me. We love doing these photo shoots together just to see what we can create, and to help other small business owners get some great content to share with their social media platforms. 

Here's the shoot. 

That was really fun and Tatum is just oh so gorgeous! 

Write to us if you need any help with your media(modeling, social, networking) We would love to do a photo shoot for you! 

Thanks a ton!

Summer Swell with Hurricane Cristobal /  by Nathaniel Harrington

Hey! It's been a while since my last post. I'm dealing with Domain name issues... switching up URL's is a pain in the butt. :( 

 

Anyways, Here's a shot that Bake Burns and I scored from this last swell given to us by Hurricane Cristobal. I'll try to keep up dating as the content comes in. 

Till then... 

My take on Hurricane Arthur. /  by Nathaniel Harrington

It didn't produce hurricane swell until well after it passed the shores of Forida, but, I still got my 2 hour window of opportunity to see some amazing swell come in. It sat of the coast of FL and built on monday-tuesday as tropical storm Arthur, thats when we got our rain and wind. By Wed morning it had gone just far enough north to give us some chest to head high swell while basting us with offshore winds. Those off-shores quickly diminished the incoming short-period swell to a mere foot or two in just a matter of hours. Most people around here never even saw what Arthur had given us... 

I almost talked myself out of going to shoot photos this morning, I was tired, and I really didn't think that the winds would have cleaned up yet. The night before I was surfing 6ft 3 second-period swell with 20-30mph winds in downpour! I thought that there could possibly be some size left to it but I had no idea what I would find when I got to the beach, thats why it was hard to wake myself up. I usually get to the sand by sunrise about 6:10am, this morning I left the house at that time. 

I was walking the trail to the beach trying to listen for that distinct sound... CRACK, CRACK, CRACK... That's the sound I have learned to love here in FL. Well, I did hear it. My walking turned more into running like a giddy lil grom as I bolted to see what was making my favorite sound. I turned the last corner to the beach and got my first glimpse of what was going on, my only regret was I hadn't really touched base with any surfers the evening before. I had no one out there with me. It was just me and some lonely barrels just doing their thing.

And this is my take.

Three months in on the East Coast and I got to see my first glimpse of what this place can do. I'm excited because I know that this was a tiny swell, with a tiny window for surf. I'm really amped to see what a big one can do. 

 

Thanks for checking in! And a special thanks to ESM for the media support. They used a couple images, those can be found here:
