The Dark Side of the Lens

This is an awesome piece on the dedication, passion, and sacrifice it takes to be a surf photographer. It’s one thing to succeed in the warmth of tropical waters, but to thrive is the harsh environment of the North Atlantic is another. Whether you give a crap about surfing or not, you’ll agree Mickey Smith is a bonifide legend if you take 6 minutes to watch The Dark Side of the Lens. Surfing in Ireland is hardcore, documenting it like Mickey Smith is heroic.
