XXL POSTER

THE NEW POSTER FOR THE BILLABONG XXL 2011 JUST CAME OUT.

I'M VERY PROUD THAT THEY SELECT ONE OF MY SHOTS OUT OF SHANE DORIAN'S SEQUENCE.

THE COMPETITION AMONG PHOTOGRAPHERS IS SO INTENSE NOW DAYS , THAT WHEN YOU SEE A MAIN STEAM COMPANY LIKE BILLABONG , CHOOSING YOUR OVER THE WORK OF MANY OTHER GOOD PHOTOGRAPHERS ,THIS IS VERY REWARDING.

ALMA SURF COVER SHOT

HAROLDO AMBROSIO - PHANTOMS , PHOTO:B.LEMOS

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT A BRAZILIAN SURFER RIDING A SUP BOARD GETS THE COVER ON A SURF MAGAZINE.

HAROLDO AMBROSIO IS A GREAT WATER MAN AND THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I GET TO HAVE ONE OF HIS SHOTS ON A COVER. THE LAST ONE WAS ON FLUIR MAGAZINE ISSUE #244 ON A HUGE WAVE AT PEAHI.

THIS TIME I GET TO SHOOT HIM ON A DECENT SIZE WAVE AT PHANTOMS AND THE EDITOR ROMEU ANDREATTA HAD NO DOUBTS ABOUT SELECTING THE SHOT FOR THE COVER.
