Adam May

Adam is better known as a sailor than as a photographer.   He represented GBR at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, sailing the Tornado catamaran with Hugh Styles.  Having narrowly missed selection for the 2004 Olympics, Adam took 2nd place at the International Moth European championships sailing his own design of hydrofoil Moth.  Later in 2004, he teamed up again with Hugh to win the UK F18 Catamaran nationals.  Our selection of images shows Adam has an eye for a picture, as well as knowing what makes a boat go fast.  His first gallery is a selection of scenic views of sailing venues around the world.  More recently he has sent us a great selection of action shots from the leading edge of catamaran development - the C Class "Little Americas Cup".

Dave Walker

Dave Walker has been sailing since he was 8 years of age. He has made his name as a crew at the highest level and has sailed with many top helms including Neil Marsden, Ian Pinnell, Rob Greenhalgh, Jim Hunt, Dave Winder, Neil Thornton, Tim Rush and both the Steve Goachers. Some of the classes Dave has sailed include Mirror, Streaker, Scorpion, Fireball, B14, Solo, Contender, 505, 470, J24, Cork 1720, 18 Foot Skiff and Mumm 30. He currently sails a Finn, having bought Ben Ainslie's well-known boat GBR 3, "Rita". 

Dave has had great success along the way, winning national and international titles, especially in the Fireball where he has been Inland Champion 4 times, first at the World & European Qualifier twice, and second in the Worlds. He has also won the J24 Irish National Championships and come second in the Champion of Champions race. 

Dave has been concentrating on sailing photography for the past 5 years. As you can see from his portfolio and website for H2O photos his vast knowledge of the sport produces the action shots you want to see. Dave has sold his work to numerous publishers and general public through the website and remains very approachable and professional. Dave is always open to new ideas and angles. H2Ophotos will stay up and running for the time being, but you will be able to find Dave's images from major events here on Fotoboat.
