Photorapher Chris Dixon isn't intimidated by shallow ledges. Being able to starfish through knee-deep water as the next set approaches is a requisite skill for the Cronulla-based photographer. In fact, all his photographic muses - meaning waves not surfers, Dixon is empty wave enthusiast - break in startlingly shallow water. Rather than dreamy seascapes his are the inner workings of dramatic, often violent, waves taken moments before implosion.
