It has been really flat for about 10 days. I was digging through the hard drive and found a few cool, classic California, evening shots. I took these a few months ago with my Olympus waterproof camera. Olympus makes a few different waterproof models; this one is 8mp waterproof to 15ft. It is a really cool camera, because there is nothing about it that looks "waterproof". These shots are a little grainy because the light was really low, but they are still pretty good for a little point and shoot waterproof. I think that it is called the Stylus 850 SW.
Anyway, this particular day I got off work a little early and headed straight to the beach to meet up with my friend Alex. We had about two hours to surf before it would be pitch black. I wasn't expecting much, but the tides and the wind were all working and there was a little tiny clean swell coming in. It made for a really fun relaxed evening session.
Here's Alex setting up for a fun, clean wall:
Then a little cut back:

Dropping in on the setting sun:
Just as it was getting to dark, to really surf much longer, a pod of dolphins swam up and were literally under and all around us. A great end to a really fun session.
There is suppose to be a small South swell hitting tomorrow! Finally.....
