Dang. A nice guy and an important chronicler of surfing for decades.
All my family's sympathy to his family.

Loved his work. He made a comment about shooting knee boarders at pipe. " There so far back you can't see them to shoot them. There the ones getting really deep! " Will miss him

I'm definitely going to go check out his photography. He was one of the limited photographers who could shoot the kneeboarders at Big Rock. He was also ahead of his time, by using the camera board to get the perspective of the rider in the tube.

Warren was a great guy. I nearly de-capitated him a few times at Big Rock. We also shared a love of music and he turned me on to a few great musicians. I will miss him and his eye for the unusual angle for a shot.
