CreatorJohn WitzigTitleMark Campbell at Spooky – 1973Date1973MediumC-type printDimensionsH. 509mm x W. 768mmArtist StatementMark Campbell was a local kid who surfed Spooky as well as many of the imports with far bigger reputations. His concentration wasn't lacking either.

I'd been shooting with the little Nikonos waterproof camera for a while, and if you got really close, you could get some good pictures with it.
