There are a lot of great local Mexican surfers who run the lineup at Puerto Escondido. Don't know this dude's name, but he was taking advantage of the rare lefts the fourth morning of the trip. Photo: John Maher

I’ve always had an appreciation for water photography, but it wasn’t until a few months ago that I decided to invest in it. Now I spend half my time in the water surfing and the other half shooting photos. It’s a great balance.
