Waive Bay shore-break
surfing pioneer, husband, and father of two, Clark
Little has gained nationwide recognition for his
photography on National Television
It all started in 2007 when Clark 's wife wanted a nice
piece of art to decorate a wall.
Voluntarily, Clark grabbed a camera, jumped in the
water, and starting snapping away capturing the beauty
and power of monstrous Hawaiian waves from the inside
out.
" Clark 's view" is a unique view of the ocean that most
will only be able to experience safely on land while
studying one of Clark 's photos.
Now with a camera upgrade and an itch to get that better
shot, Clark has taken this on full time and has moved
his office from land, to the inside of a barrel.
Since the recent stir of Clark 's work, his images have
been run on the Today Show, ABC World News Now, Nature's
Best Photography, Paris Match (France), La Vie ( France
), Hana Hou (Hawaiian Airlines) magazine, Surfer
magazine, Surfer's Journal as well as multiple
publishers and newspapers in the U.S. and overseas.
These incredible images of waves in the Hawaiian Islands
were taken by Clark Little, the number one photographer
of surf.
He is dedicated to photographing the waves and has
published a selection of his best.

Sand in
surf Clark Little/SWNS |
This shot captures sand
from the ocean's floor being swept up by a monstrous
wave and resembles a sandstorm. Little calls it the Sand
monster.
There were clouds of sand ten feet high and I'm standing
there. I'm holding on to my camera and my trigger as
long as I can. Then I have to jump into the cloud of
sand to try to get out of danger's way. His fans pay as
much as $4,000 for his gorgeous photos. |

This shot is his
favourite. With a high shutter speed he caught the
brilliant fanned effect of two waves intersecting each
other and throwing out this beautiful fan of water. |
