Water

Anybody with a GoPro can make a surf film these days, but the latest piece from Los Angeles-based surf, fashion and lifestyle photographer Morgan Maassen is 20,000 leagues better than most.

Titled “Water,” the four-and-a-half-minute short was filmed in Hawaii and Tahiti and features surfers Frankie Harrer, Kanoa Igarashi, Miguel Pupo, Johnny Gannon and Damien Hobgood, all set to a dreamy song by SJD. Maassen, a 24-year-old freelance photographer, boasts a client list that includes Apple, Audi, Nike, prAna, Billabong, Wilson, Corona, Quiksilver, Red Bull and Delta Airlines.
