Very sharp and crips action shot. A pity the top of the wave is overexposed... But I suppose the rest would have been underexosed with correct light on the top... A choice.
Congrats for this nice shot.
See you.
Denis.

It is not easy to make so great composition in photos with so great movemant like in this case. The empty space of water is fantastic.
Splashing water makes scene, and pose of surfer. Great!

Great action shot of a decisive moment !

Well done

Marleen

Must have been quite close to the shore.
The lighting is awesont as well.

Hi Chuck,
You seem to be hitting some of my favorite local spots. Very cool surfer image. Composition is nice and dynamic how you have him going into the canvas...Did he wash out? ;P
Good job.
