Happy Halloween!!!

Sorry I haven't posted for a while....all I have tonight is a recent shot. This is Sean Hayes, it was a small day but I got a few. I like this one just because it shows how close the surfers get to us sometimes. This was shot with my Nikon D200 and the 10.5mm fish eye lens.

So this is kind of a test...Let me know if you like it.

This is Sean Hayes getting some tube time. I am going to edit all the sequences together to make a little video montage. This one doesn't have any sound. I know the pictures are small, I am working on that.

More Big Monday...

Here are a few more photos from the other day. I am in the process of putting the sequences in a sideshow player, if I can figure out how to post it on here I will.

Going over the falls....

Dane Reynolds in just one of his many barrels that day...

Bobby Martinez, just after his WCT win at Mundaka, stays covered up...

First I want to say thank you for everyone that has been checking out this Blog and TidalStock.com.

Well I am off to the Big Apple tomorrow. I am going for PDN's PhotoPlus Expo. This is a perfect time to go talk shop, with the relaunch of TidalStock. There are some wonderful speakers and events going on in lieu of the expo. It should be a great few days plus I get to hang out with my good friend and soon to be a unique photographer on TidalStock.com, Jennifer Becker. Here is her Blog for all you Bloggers.

I will be going to the Brooks Institute annual get together that should be good times. And also PhotoShelter is having a little thing as well it looks pretty fun sign up here.

Sooooo if you are going to be in NYC hit me up.

see ya........

Just a Reminder...

TidalStock.com's radio Commercial starts airing tomorrow. Listen to 97.1 Free Fm online and if you hear our commercial tells us what you think. Click here to listen. Also check out our site and lets us know what you think. Thanks a million!!!!

Congragulations to Bobby Martinez for winning the ASP World Tour contest at Mundaka Spain, the Billabong Pro. This is his second year in a row winning this contest. If you don't know Bobby is, he is a local surfer from this area and just absolutely kills it at surfing. The next contest is in Brazil. Good luck Bobby. Watch all the action here.

And lastly the photos are of Tillman (You might recognize him from the apple i-phone commercial) he Skateboards and now he Skim boards. We are working on a little project with him, more to come later.

Have a great one......Little swell in the water----go surfing.

Sorry....

Sorry it has been so long since my last post.....A lot has been happening and some cool things are in the works!!!

Here is the News.........

--Look for us or should I say hear for us next week online at 97.1 Free Fm. We are running a commercial which can be heard on their online stream. I believe it will be played in the 8am-5pm time slot all next week. Listen if you can and if you hear it let us know what you think. 97.1 has a huge online listening audience and we think this well be great for TidalStock.com.

--With the radio commercial we will Re-launch TidalStock with more ocean, water, life and extreme sports Stock Photography and add a few new features.

--We are also adding new contributing photographers, which we are very excited about their work.

--Look for Tidalstock.com's work on FotoSearch.com. They will be a distributer of some of our rights managed photography. They come up number two if you search: Stock Photography on Google.
They were very pleased with our photography. This is huge to us since that they usually only deal with the "big fish" of the Stock Photography Companies.

--Speaking of Google, we are slowly making it up the list to page one in our specific search terms. This is great news for us.

--And lastly, In the next few weeks look for a new RyanCardonePhotography.com website. We are updating the photography and redesigning the site.

So I think that is all the news for now.... HAPPY SHOOTING!
