Travel and lifestyle photographer Brown Cannon III has an exhibition titled “Surface” at the Terra Gallery in San Francisco opening February 21, 2008.

The show is a collaboration between Brown and surfboard designers, Bruce Gordon and Nick Palandrani of GP Surfboards in a combined effort to raise ocean awareness and responsbility. Brilliant.

I’m eager to see the boards (Brown promised to send some images my way and I’ll be sure to share them with you as soon as they come in.) as I bet they are stunning. I know nothing about surfboards but what I’ve seen on GP Surfboards’s website looks impeccably crafted. Just check out those fins!

Brown photographed a travel feature story about India while I was Art Director for Virtuoso Life magazine and I continue to enjoy seeing his images appear in national magazines such as Gourmet and Travel + Leisure.

He has a wonderfully relaxed sensibility and poetic interpretation of his subjects. Visit Brown’s website to see a sampling of images that will be in the show and one of my favorite stories, “Form Follows Food” shot for Gourmet.
