SEAN TINER

With the price of gas continually escalating and a change in general management at South Bay Toyota, The 2009 South Bay Toyota Calendar featuring my images of Southern California has been postponed indefinitely. I wish South Bay Toyota the best as they move forward.

"Surf City" aka Huntington Beach is one of my favorite locations in Southern California to photograph. The varying light and surf conditions create constant aesthetic nuisances to capture in this historic city. Enjoy.

(The Wedge' New Media (C) Tiner ) The Wedge is one of my favorite beaches to photograph, when a swell is surging. I really enjoy how the waves dramatically crash along the shore and the jetty adds an aesthetic backdrop to the composition. I captured this photograph shortly after graduating from Brown in 2006.

I am excited to announce that I will have a 2009 calendar. It will be a complimentary gift at a Los Angeles based retailer. The merchant will be formally introduced in a few months. From Los Angeles' metropolis to Orange County's beaches, the calendar will feature iconic images of Southern California’s culture. It will be given away during a special promotion in the summer. After having my first calendar published in 2007, I decided to focus my efforts on creating artwork, my graduate studies and did not create a calendar for 2008.

"Unclose your mind. You are not a prisoner. You are a bird in flight, searching the skies for dreams." -Haruki Marukami From the maritime community of Newport Beach to the surf-break of Trestles, this month's screen savers feature arial images of Orange County. They offer unique perspectives to Southern California's culture and pastime. To see more arial images, please look at earlier blog entries from this month.
