Shooting the Pier


My wife and I recently acquired this fantastic photo of Laird Hamilton shooting the Malibu Pier. The photo was taken by Steve Munch of the Latitudes Gallery in Ventura, California. This pier shot occurred during the morning session on Tuesday, August 26th, 2014. Getty Images photographer, Jason Merrit, captured Laird emerging from the beach just after this epic ride (image below). Possibly, Steve Munch was captured in the lower left of Jason's photo.



The Malibu pier is on my commute from Malibu Lake to Santa Monica. On this day, I sat in traffic for over two hours because of the surfers, news crews, and looky-loos that came to see the surf generated by Hurricane Marie.

Bueno.
