South Florida Photographer, Ben Hicks, was in invited to speak to the St Augustine Camera Club on Thursday July 19th. He gave a very inspiring and well-received presentation about the progression of his photography career and his philosophy of image making.
Over the next two days, Ben taught two separate instructional Surf Photography workshops on St Augustine Beach at the newly renovated Guy Harvey Resort St Augustine Beach. The workshops were hosted by the SACC and Guy Harvey Resorts St Augustine Beach. Canon Cameras provided five Canon 5D Mk IV’s and Aqua Tech provided underwater housings for the 5D’s as well as housings for 8 smartphones for participants to use.
The workshops started with an hour of instruction on how to use the equipment followed by 2 ½ hours of in the water shooting and individual tutoring with a final hour of in-class instructions on how to edit your images.
The main response we got from workshop attendees was ‘What Fun. ” Everyone learned a lot, had a great time and got a bunch of pictures for their portfolio, said Terry Bottom, President of St Augustine Camera Club.

AUGUSTINE BEACH, FL—NOVEMBER 17, 2015—Malcolm Berg and his award winning design firm E0A, Inc., have been selected to create the interior design of the new Guy Harvey Outpost Beach Resort, schedule to debut in the Spring of 2016. Formerly the Holiday Isle Resort, the 152-room property will feature the adventure lifestyle of Guy Harvey, a world renowned marine artist, documentarian, underwater explorer, marine scientist and conservation advocate.
The resort’s new design concept, according to Berg, “is about new discoveries, about finding the unexpected, about looking beneath the surface to find new perspectives.” Adds Mark Ellert, president of Outpost, “Malcolm is the new voice of design. He’s deconstructing traditional hospitality design, replacing it with the synthesis of art, architecture, technology and cultural narrative that we refer to as social design.”
The project scope entails a complete renovation, including the resort’s registration building, meeting spaces and the poolside bar. Berg said plans call for “lightening up the feeling of cramped compartmentalized public spaces, creating more connectivity to the outdoors and encouraging a carefree, respectful, nature-loving lifestyle as embodied by Guy Harvey.”
The Guy Harvey Outpost Beach Resort, St. Augustine Beach will join the company’s Signature Collection brand The other Guy Harvey Outpost Signature resorts are located in St. Pete Beach and Islamorada. The Guy Harvey Outpost Beach Resort St. Augustine is owned and managed by affiliates of Tampa based, HI Development. https://guyharveyoutpostblog.com/celebrated-resorthospitality-designer-malcolm-berg-selected-for-guy-harvey-outpost-resort-st-augustine-beach-conversion/){kind=link}

“Hurricane Dorian left an unprecedented path of destruction through the Bahamas, causing unimaginable loss of life, property and security,” said Dr. Guy Harvey, world-renowned artist, conservationist, scientist and entrepreneur. “I was born in the Caribbean and lived here all my life, so I am particularly heartbroken by the devastation in the Bahamas.

![](mailto:?subject=Calling All Pups: Stand Up for Warriors&body=Prop your pup on your paddleboard and race for fun, glory, prizes and to support a worthy canine cause at the first annual Pups & Sups event July 30 on St. Augustine Beach.
Humans and their pets will compete to see who can ride the biggest wave, take the longest ride, cruise in highest style, and take the best wipe-out-- among other categories-- in this family-friendly competition. Proceeds will benefit <a href="https://www.k9sforwarriors.org/">K9s for Warriors</a> -- a Ponte Vedra non-profit dedicated to supplying combat veterans returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan with service dogs that ease their adjustment into civilian life.
Paw-ticipants will be divided into weight divisions: large dogs (51 lbs. and up); medium dogs (21 -50 lbs.); and small dogs (20 lbs. and under). They will be launched by their owner/handler, with winners in each weight division advancing to the finals.
Registration is $40. Check-in time will be 7:30 a.m. at 860 A1A Beach Boulevard-- future site of the <a href="https://guyharveyoutpost.com/lodging/beach-resorts/st-augustine-beach/">Guy Harvey Outpost Resort, St. Augustine Beach</a>. Competition will begin promptly at 8:30 a.m.
<a href="https://guyharveyoutpostblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Pups-Sups-1080-Image.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4825" src="https://guyharveyoutpostblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Pups-Sups-1080-Image.jpg" alt="" width="1080" height="996" /></a>
Tahoma Guiry says it should be a fun time for both people and dogs. Guiry--chief marketing officer and education director of K9s for Warriors-- says she and her three kids aged 11-18 really enjoy paddleboarding with their 1 1/2-year old Labradoodle Nash. The family adopted Nash last year after he washed out of the organization's rigorous training program for service dogs --("He got guarded with his toys, so I took him home," Guiry explained.) Today Nash fits right in with the Guirys and their other dog and enjoys SUP-ing on local lakes.
"He just chills out and goes along for the ride," Guiry said. "He loves the water and loves being with people and our family."
Since launching in 2011, K9s for Warriors has matched 323 military veterans with service dogs-- mostly pets from shelters, other rescue organizations, and a few breeders. The dogs perform a multitude of tasks for their warriors who may suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder, brain injury and other conditions. The dogs help them avoid panic attacks, wake them from night terrors, enhance their physical mobility, and ease their anxiety in social situations.
U.S. Army veteran Matt Berg of St. Augustine was paired with his Labrador-mix service dog Sunny last year. At 98 pounds, Sunny is too big to ride Berg's surfboard with him, but Berg says "he's a good dog....always there....a good companion."
