Hawaiian Waves

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 waves and has published a selection of his best images.  He captures magical moments "inside the tube" as surfers say.  His fans pay as much as $4,000 for his gorgeous photos.

Sun glints off wave


Sand in surf

This shot captures sand from the ocean's floor being swept up by a monstrous wave and resembles a sandstorm. Little calls it the Sandmonster.  "There were clouds of sand ten feet high and I'm standing there 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."

Tubular shining


Beach - surf crashes down


Molten liquid gold


Splash - stunning shot


White tumultuous water


Red mysterious shot


Break - wave crashes down


Beauty - water drops

This shot is his favorite.  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 with a kind of glass look.
