This beach is a bit of a challenge to get to but we wanted to try it out with a few of us. After exploring the trails above the beach and scrambling along steep edges we finally made it down to this pristine beach that seemed to go on forever. Games, yoga poses and meeting the challenge of the cold surf made the day crystalize into a stellar experience of nude freedom. The photos can be found at event-47 On-camera: Taz, Stefbot, Ophelia, Anomily, Niki, Blossom

This video gallery is the same day covered in the Event-47 photo galleries. Yes it has taken me this long to edit the video from this day. I have a lot of unedited video shot over the years. These 5-minute clips are in a form that I call a "rough" cut. I assembled the footage in a way that shows as much as possible while still in a "viewable" format leaving out all the shakey parts and things that go on for too long. Eventually I will combine all these clips into one movie, shorten much of it and add music. So in some sense you are getting to "see everything" before I shape it all into one continuous movie format later.
