Finalist Adventure Photographer of the Year

Kim Feast Australia

33°51'46.0"S 114°59'06.2"E

Professional surfer Noa Deane flies through a rainbow at Huzzas surf break, Western Australia. “This image is baffling,” says Feast. “It was created at sunset. I had to track the surfer coming at me and then lose him for a moment as he prepared to launch. I had to turn blindly and shoot, predicting that he would fly through my frame. The resulting rainbow I was not prepared for – it’s something I’ve never seen before and not been able to replicate since.”

Kim Feast began his photography journey while competing as a world number one bodyboarder. Following injuries, he shifted focus to extreme sports photography, channeling the same passion and intensity that drove his athletic career. With a Bachelor of Architecture, Kim blends creative design principles into his visual storytelling, capturing dynamic moments shaped by his lifelong connection to the ocean. Though he approaches his craft with humility - often feeling like he's figuring it out as he goes - his work reflects a deep study of movement, environment, and the human drive to push limits in nature.
