[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This surfer is in the correct, most powerful part of this small, well shaped wave. Taken a cove south of Bondi Beach. The conditions on this sunday morning were almost perfect. As surfers realise, shape is far more important than the size of waves.

Hi Murray

Good sharpness & a superb decisive moment shot of the surfer in his black wetsuit. Marvellous cyan colour of the sea. Tfs!

Hello Murray.
Excellent 'action'shot of this stunning surfer.
Its all in perfect balance.!
Pity, I was only surfing with sail, to old for trying that now, haha
Best regards from Jan

Hi Murray,
Awesome action shot. Perfect composition and great colour tones. Good to have a couple of people in the background to give some perspective on how large the wave really is. Well caught.

TFS,
Scott.

hi Murray

Great action freeze of this surfer in black and by providing him with a good blueish green water backdrop for this presentation. Your f/13 delivers very sharp detail of this speed stop.

tfs, bill

Another good shot here Murray - great placement of the surfer, good capture of colours - that division between blue background and green foreground (forewater) creates a fantastic dual-tone effect.
