Faux-Surfer Tatoography

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Kelly Slater Photoshoot Makes Some Serious Waves

— April 14, 2010 — Fashion
The Kelly Slater photoshoot showcases what the pro athlete may look like if he devoted his life to ink rather than waves. The Tony Hawk of surfing, this guy has been at the forefront of this sport for years now. I had great respect for surfers before, but after trying it out myself, I have a whole new admiration for the sport.

The Kelly Slater photoshoot was taken and developed by Alberto Seveso, who has done such other altered shoots with the likes of Michael Phelps and Lindsey Vonn. It’s one thing to be a great photographer, but it is something else completely to be a master visual artist as well.
