Rounding out a year that saw his frequent flyer points travel sky high, Sydney photographer, Joel Coleman from Saltmotion, boarded the boat PNG Explorer for a bit of exploring...in PNG. The trip was put together with the help of The Perfect Wave travel company and they surfed around the New Ireland region off the north coast of Papua. The photographs tell the story of the waves the crew scored.
