Had a chance to go or a surf last Week. it was 22 degrees, and the water was around 38ish. It was so cold but the waves were perfect and no crowds, just me and few of the locals! I Managed to take photos before and after I surfed, It doesn’t look cold in the photos but my hands froze while photographing. I have more on my Flickr page http://flickr.com/photos/gonville/

Rhode Island during large winter swell, I’ve used photos from this series for reference in many of my recent paintings.

Here are a few random snapshots from the first annual invitational LC surfers party. (I’ll load more up soon!)
