A selection of this month's finest photographs recommended by the editor.

This month we take a look one of the most photographed spots on the Planet, Pipeline on Oahu's North shore.

Pipeline is pretty unique in the surfing world. Half way along the North shore's famous seven mile stretch the waves at Pipeline break onto board and bone breaking shallow lava reefs, not surfed until the 60's by Phil Edwards it has now become a proving ground to the worlds aspiring and top surfers. Pipeline still makes up the final stop of the ASP world tour and provides a natural spectacle that is often mind blowing, the waves break so hard and so close to the beach that the sets even shake the sand!

Like everything in surf, Pipeline has many moods and below are some images that capture the raw beauty and energy that Pipeline has to offer.
