Chalk it up to surfers to name a place after a confection. Cloud 9, possibly the best, most consistent surf break in the Philippines is named after a local chocolate bar (which you can buy in the small stores smattered about Cloud 9 and General Luna). Located in Siargao Island, Surigao del Norte in the Philippines, Cloud 9 gained a faithful surf following in the late 80s and continues to lure surfers from around the world.

I shot these with two Superheadz 110 cameras, the fisheye Demekin and the standard Noah’s Cam. Unfortunately these cameras don’t come with telephoto, so no photos of surfers.

It’s been a bit since my last post and, unfortunately, it’ll be a bit longer. I’m currently closing our April issue (day job!) and should be posting something readable before the end of the week. Also still waiting for my new batch of film to be developed and scanned.

Thanks for the patience!

More photos from another trip to Candaba Swamp, shot on a Holga CFN. Lots of weird, unexpected effects and light leaks from a crack on the camera and the deliberate mishandling of the film. The crack on the Holga is care of our cat Boris who can be a real pesky critter.
