    The residents and the tourists on the Outer Banks got to wake up Thursday morning with a pretty decent little snow shower. The weather channels were all calling for a quick 2-6 inch dump and that’s pretty much what we got — just enough for a snowman or two and maybe a prickly ride down the Wright Bro’s Memorial if you were brave enough. The snow came quickly and left almost just as fast. Luckily for us, Lensman Matt Lusk was able to savor some of the winter imagery for us to see.

    Check out Matt Lusk’s Blog with photos HERE.
    You can also purchase images from Matt’s store HERE.

    Last Saturday marked an unusual day on the Outer Banks. Areas South of Roanoke Island ended up getting up to 6 inches of snowfall – turning Hatteras Island into a slightly different playground than what we are normally used to. Bryan Elkus and friends were there to take advantage of this unusual occurrence. Thanks Bryan for submitting. To check out some more great photography from Bryan Elkus, and make sure you grab a copy of his 2011 Cape Hatteras Calendar, here.

    Local Photographer Matt Lusk has certainly been busy over the last few swells…. cold water/weather and all. His unique shots of capturing that euphoric moment for surfers is constantly progressing. One of his recent accomplishments was a featured photo in “Stab” magazine where they only pick 15 of the best photos from around the world to be featured in the latest publication. Recently, Lusk took a road trip from the Outer Banks up to New England on a cold wintery swell and captured more of those magical moments. Thanks to Surfermag.com (and of course, Matt Lusk and a handful of talented surfers), You can view them HERE.

    A 6 foot 10 inch modern fish shaped by Murray Ross has been used as a canvas by David ” Tsunami ” Wise, a spectacular primal fantasy painter raised on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Tsunami has been surfing nearly all of his life and his vision and art find their soul in the ocean, its turmoil and power to inflame imagination. The detail on this board is phenomenal requiring endless hours of dedication and represents the pilgrimage of the Watermen and Children of the sea to the Ring of Fire. This is defined on the deck of the board, starting from top to bottom is a volcano shooting it’s fire into the atmosphere and down the rails of the board. The flowing lava fields mesh into the sea, with waves and reefs. The board is peppered with sea life and contains the Currituck, Bodie Island, and Hatteras lighthouses all famous landmarks from times one by. This board of art can be seen… at Art’s Place mile post 2.5 in Kitty Hawk North Carolina or check it out at Ebay, it could be yours.
