MORE ABOUT RAY COLLINS

Ray Collins is from Thirroul in New South Wales, Australia. He discovered photography in 2007 following a tragic accident that left him unable to walk for several months. His love of the ocean led him to begin photographing his local surfing friends, within a few months he had captured the surfing worldʼs attention by gracing the front covers of several international magazines with his fresh perspective and his willingness to risk his personal safety to get the shot.

A few years later his photography morphed from surfing to waves with the “aim is to show the ocean as a living, breathing thing. To document it in all of it’s intimidating strengths; and to bring awareness to its delicate fragility."
