James Katsipis wasn’t quite born in 40-degree-water swimming off Montauk Point with a camera in his hands, but, yeah, basically he was.
Since then, he’s pointed his lens at an awful lot of things in, under and around that water. He shares with us here a few of his favorite Northeast adventures and a bit of the stories behind them.

A really tough and sad situation to be in. Luckily no-one was hurt.
