Lately, a wonderful email is going around the Internet about the wave photography of Clark Little, a Hawaiian photographer and surfer. Each time I see the email, I am excited to click on it. And, each time, I end up sighing, “Wowwwwwwwwwwww”, as I scroll through the magical pictures.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\nEarlier today, I received this exact email from Paul Kiminski, a heart valve surgery patient, who wrote, “Seeing these photos are one reason to stay around – endure the surgery – and enjoy the beauty one more day.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

That said, I was inspired to post this blog hoping Paul’s message resonates with some, if not, all of us.<\/p>\n

Without further ado, here are more amazing photos by Clark Little…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\nNow that’s what I call a shore-break…
\n <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

 
\nPretty top-heavy and powerful…
\n <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

 
\nI would call this one, “Clay Break”… Do you see the palm trees in the background?
\n <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

 
\nIt looks like Clark Little, the photographer, is standing up inside the wave on this one… Amazing!
\n <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

 
\nWow… Can you imagine what Clark had to experience after snapping this picture? Ouch!
\n <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

 
\nThis could be my favorite. Do you see the sun setting inside the wave?
\n <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

 
\nTalk about a sandy, water wall!
\n <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

 
\nI’m inspired to do something, anything after that one.
\n <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

 
\nSo clean, simple and beautiful.
\n <\/p>\n

\nAgain, thanks to Paul and Sam for forwarding this email to me. I’m thrilled to be able to share it with our community.<\/p>\n

Keep on tickin!
