In 2007 roughly 30,000 b&w dupe negatives were discovered in Pasadena at the Rose Bowl Swapmeet. After spending 1 year organizing the collection I have been traveling for the last 3+ years capturing stories that if not told will be lost.... This is Lost and Found. Aaron Chang, Dan Merkel, Bob Barbour, Bernie Baker, Buttons, Greg Weaver, Jock Sutherland, Rory Russell, Larry Bertlemann, Bobby Owens, Duncan Campbell & Gerry Lopez.

The Soul of Surfing
The fog has returned to the bay area and as I awoke I grabbed a cup of coffee and the Sunday paper. while going thru the paper I discovered 3 different sections, 3 different articles all using surfing or surfboards as a lifestyle or discussion. Is Surfing on the brink of new break out? It appears that it is being used as a lifestyle more then ever for business and even advertising. Chevy is currently running a television spot for the new Chevy Malibu and in the commercial are surfers carrying boards. Yes I believe that it is a lifestyle but also maybe soul is coming back.

Yeah, I've noticed that a lot too. Corporate, business and internet stories use surfing imagery a lot - not sure why. Maybe they think it's cool or maybe its the juxtaposition of surfing and sitting in front of a computer (aka: my life).
For a while I started happy-snapping these things when I came across them here in my river-city: Phone company/beer/employment agency/cars/tampons/etc advertisements, coke cans with surfboards on them, radio station cars with fake board 'strapped' to the roof and so on and so on...
It's funny how many times a day I can find surfing even while I'm not living right by the sea.
