Photolyfe: Shaun Tunnicliffe

Welcome back to PhotoLyfe, in which Stab’s favourite photographers answer questions about themselves with their own images. It’s that old picture-tells-a-thousand-words chestnut but with more colour and pop. It’s a way to cut out all the bullshit. It’s like jacking into the main vein of those who supply us with exquisite surf imagery every day. Give thanks by studying each image with a more careful eye than ever!

Ever been to New Zealand? Want to have a vicarious taste of the Land Of The Long White Cloud? Well, Shaun ‘Tunny’ Tunnicliffe’s Instagram feed is a welcoming space to dip your toes. With a healthy mix of empties, landscape and action, after a few flicks of the thumb it becomes clear that Shaun has a thing for dreamy lighting. He’s an enthusiastic lensman, a disciple of the skate world and the latest guest in our Photolyfe series. Slide down for a digital handshake.
