So there he was, young Grant Molony drifting about in unfamiliar waters, waterhousing in hand, trying to make sense of the ever-shifting Puerto Escondido lineup. Waves would stand up and reel off, either too far away to shoot or too close and self preservation would kick in and he'd dive deep to avoid the explosion.
But then a left stood up outside and not 100 metres away, and someone was scratching hard to get into it. If the surfer made the drop and nutted up the barrel then he'd be driving straight into Grant's field of view - bring it on...

Riley Laing is a 14-year-old grom from the NSW Central Coast who recently made headlines as the youngest surfer to tackle Shipsterns Bluff. As an emerging talent Riley's gonna cop a whole lot of headlines playing on his name: "Living the life of Riley" etc.
Thing is, it's bloody hard to avoid the cliche in this instance. Check it: A young grub at the beginning of a six week summer holiday bursting through a crisp beachbreak session not far from home.

Photographer Grant Molony shines his miners light on the cavemen of the Central Coast. Shane Holmes and Jeremy make the righthander their home whilst Phil Coote plays solo - and styling! - hermit on the left.

Blue and green should never be seen without a colour in between.
In this case it's the brown nut of Russ Molony and blonde wig of Ace Buchan seperating the blue sky and green water. This colour co-ordinated photo spread, shot on the NSW Central Coast, was brought to you by Grant Molony.

Here's a few shots of Grant Molony's commute to work the other day. After walking out his front door he's nabbed by brother Russ for a few sly ones at the local before rushing in to open the door of the surfshop he works at. Sure beats the morning grind.
