short focus

Today while deciding what my shot of the day would be, I thought something about foam.  Doing a mental check-off of all things foam and things associated with foam I almost overlooked my neighbor. My neighbor at the studio makes surfboards by hand. I have known the owner and the guys, shapers and glassers there for years, but never went past the front office. Board blanks pre-shaped are pretty dull, but the shaping process and the final shaped blank is like a piece of art.  Each one is unique, similar, but no two are quite the same. I was drawn to this view since the dust from shaping was still in place, the board nearly ready to add it to the rack next the others right behind it in the background.
