Photographer and filmmaker Mickey Smith's new collective, Astray Films, is releasing it's first film on Irish surfing, From Shadows.

According to Mickey's blog, it's "something you can throw on to psyche up for a mega winter session, or to motivate yourself to get out and get into that frozen wetty for a session on an unfriendly day."

It features surfing from the likes of Fergal Smith, Tom Lowe and Greg Long, and has got some nice POV camera work too!

Thanks to movies such as Waveriders, Ireland is fast becoming synonymous with big wave surfing and by the looks of this, it isn't going to ruin that reputation any time soon.

You can get your hands on it via Magic Seaweed from December.

Love, love, love Mickey's vision as some one who can make the rawness of these locations look so appealing and alluring. 'Power's of Three' was an incredible work - totally made me want to hop on the first flight out to Ireland, suit up and feel the biting cold of the Atlanic.

Those waves look nasty. Only brave men venture out into that wild abyss!
