June 2009, San Clemente, CA. The Surfing Heritage Foundation will be presenting some of the icons of surf photography in the last of its three-part series of the Light Table Sessions this Friday, June 26. Grant Ellis, photo editor of Surfer magazine, will share some of the images that have earned Surfer the reputation as one of the leading surf magazines worldwide.
Ellis will be sharing an amazing collection of work from over the past 50 years of Surfer magazine’s history. The audience will get to view some of Surfer’s archives showing past images that were on the cutting-edge of surf photography for their time and current photos still renown for their breath-taking imagery around the world.
Steve Pezman, publisher of The Surfers Journal, states, “The photo editors are the generals of this specialized battlefield and in the rare occasion that they consent to put on slide shows, it becomes an unspoken challenge for each to present the most stunning statement possible on the state-of-the-art of surfing and surf photography.”
We will also have the new Surfing Yearbook available for purchase at the special discount price of $50 (includes tax), it normally retails for $65. Two of the book’s contributors, Paul Holmes (author of the Velzy, Bing, and forthcoming Dick Brewer biographies), and PT (former world champ), will be on hand to personalize your copy.
The final Light Table Session series will be held at The Foundation’s cultural heritage facility located at 110 Calle Iglesia, San Clemente, CA 92672. Show time is 7:30 pm and doors open to the general public at 7:00 pm. Allow time to view our special surf art exhibit. General admission is $15. Proceeds from the evening go to the Surfing Heritage Foundation and their ongoing work of preserving surf culture for the education and appreciation of current and future generations.
