It’s day two of my lunchtime photo sessions and I grabbed an Acai Bowl and headed down to the San Clemente Pier. There was a real variety of stuff to shoot, from interesting people, to surf and pigeons. Here’s a select few culled from my files.

I recently had surgery on my hand and my daily lunchtime surf has been put on hold for a few months. So I’ve decided to spend my lunch walking around San Clemente and shooting photos. Here’s a few of my favorites from the first day. - Matt

Here are some pictures of September travels here on the Central Coast. If you guys are looking for a good Thanksgiving roadtrip the Central Coast offers up its best waves in Fall.

Scott of Rootamental invited me to go skating with him and what seemed like the entire skate scene of the Central Coast. Rootamental has a deeper connection with the locals than I have seen with many other skateboard companies. Scott seems to be friends with anyone that has ever bought a board from him. The night turned into 20 or so people all rooted with Scott and Rootamental. According to Scott many more skate sessions will be on there way so keep checking back for more from Rootamental.
