The Dark Side of the Lens

I never set out to become anything in particular, only to live creatively and push the scope of my experience through adventure and through passion.

You may have seen this before as it’s been out for a while. I, for one, until yesterday had not. I found the monologue running behind the visuals simply beautiful. If you’re a photographer or a filmmaker or a surfer or just want to lead a creative life, whether for money, glory or any other reason, this video is for you. Yes that’s pretty much everyone.
