Surf Photography Contest by Zak Noyle
A photo contest for Hawai'i's up and coming photographers.
Honolulu, Hawaii April 30, 2018 - The Changing of the Tides was created by world renowned local surf photographer, Zak Noyle, with the hope of giving the next generation of surf photographers more support, help, and better opportunities. Up and coming photographers will be presented a platform to showcase their talent on the world stage, with the goal of making this a potential career.
The contest was an overwhelming success, with over 40 participants from across Hawaii participating in the contest. The quality of images was above and beyond what was wished for with every photographer stepping out of their comfort zone to create a submission they were proud of.
We took the 40 down to 10 in the next round and they were required to submit an additional set of images as their best images shot. The judging process was not easy, with each judge looking for what they felt was the full package. Some of the judges such as, Keoki Seguibo and Mike Latronic lending a more editorial eye of who could fill a full feature to Jeff Hall a photo agent looking to who could complete the next big ad campaign. It was diverse, intense and exactly what was needed to find the top entries.
The 6 finalist from across the state of Hawaii are- Nick Gruen, Luke Horner, Dave Gomez, Shane Grace, Kalani Minihan, Philip Kitamura...Check out the full Changing of the Tides Press Release.
