THE WEDGE
The physics behind this wave creates a monster peak combined with an incoming wave mutating with a wave that has already passed and bounced off the jetty alongside. This wave breaks dangerously close to shore and in very shallow water because of how steep the beach is and, in turn, becomes very powerful and potentially deadly for the average beachgoer. Not to mention the strength of the rip currents created by these waves can make it very difficult for inexperienced swimmers. While The Wedge holds such a fearsome reputation, that only created more of an obsession for Jason to photograph it.
I've definitely had my scars and pretty violent beatings at The Wedge, but that's expected, and all I can do is try to remain calm and retain my energy. Not a day goes by when I don't feel some sort of hesitation when getting in the water at The Wedge; it doesn't matter if the waves are 4ftor 20ft; it's such a powerful wave that if you end up in the wrong place you can definitely be injured or worse. - Jason Fenmore
Over time Jason learned that sometimes the greatest photos were created from the most dangerous angles, and this plays a significant role in how he captures his photos.
