There is something extraordinarily beautiful about the 'Abandoned Surfland' photo series by Joni Sternbach. Artistically documenting Long Island surfers in Montauk’s Ditch Plains, Sternbach has created a vintage-treated collection that is almost too nostalgic for words. Thankfully, you can peruse the gallery to properly digest each powerful image.
Strangely enough, I would have never have thought surfing as such a powerful subject. Through photographer Joni Sternbach's eyes, however, it is, and 'Abandoned Surfland' is proof of that.
