Awesome shot! Really, it's just...amazing.

I'm not entirely happy with it. I had some issues with the shot that aren't as apparent at this size. In fact, I keep tinkering with it. Probably looks different now than when you first saw it.

oh well, it'll do, not like I get to see people surf that often. =D

I love the action in this pic
and the pic splash of the water
But only I think its a bit to blue
Is it the whte balance or a ps filter

Thats my only critique!

nice work

Glad you liked and thanks for the fav as well!

I did add a cooling filter to it in PS, so that's what you're picking up on. I may go back and crank it down later a little and see what the reaction is then.

thanks =D

I'd been following his progress for ages, and when he was finally up on the wave, I had such a short span. It was the first time I'd really tried to shoot something in motion, so I'm glad I got a good one out of it!

Thanks!

Beautiful area, I'm sure you'll love living there!

And thanks for the comment I watched that guy for quite awhile before getting that moment. Granted, I can think of way worse ways to spend my time than plopped by the ocean. =D
