If you’re a frequent visitor to our blog, or you follow our social media channels, you’ll already be familiar with the work of Anj Semark. One of Australia’s best and most productive surf photographers, his work captures the many moods of the WA coastline. Like any good photographer, he thrives on new experiences and new places, so we were excited to hear his plans to visit Iceland this year. In between shooting dramatic landscapes, he wore our Super Premium Hooded 5/4 Steamer in the frigid local waters. Hear his thoughts on the trip along with a few of his favourite images below.

30hrs, 3 flights, 35kgs of camera gear and a 6’3 tall human who can barely fit in a car traveling to the other side of the world for what? It’s easy to get caught up in everyday life. Work takes focus and while concentrating on the things to get you by, it’s easy to forget why you started this whole journey. If booking a ticket to the other end of the globe to refresh that vision is what it takes, I wouldn’t even think twice. No matter the cost, the crammed traveling conditions or the lack of sleep, having those moments in which you feel so insignificant brings you back to why you started, The Adventure.
