Colin Gift


Colin has been a Dolphin Club member for over 23 years, during which time he has completed numerous swims including Alcatraz and Golden Gate crossings to name but a few.

In recent years his attention has turned from swimming, to piloting and photographing, where his skills learned from a lifetime of surfing, windsurfing, kayaking and Graphic Art/Design have earned him a position of trust and admiration from many. Well respected for his unique approach to �capturing the moment� event photography as well as his knowledge of San Francisco�s ever changing water conditions, Colin has been hired as a private photographer / pilot for numerous open water swims, as well as staff photographer & pilot for many events, large and small over the last several years.

As a professional photographer most recently, he has several large pieces currently on display at the S.F.Moma (Ft. Mason Artists Gallery) and is gearing up for an upcoming one man show at a private Gallery in downtown San Francisco.

The many facets of his work may be viewed at FlatStar.
