I’ve taken up photographing skimboarders lately and I really love it. It’s such a challenge for me every time I’m out there.

Your surf photography is always so fun! I love your framing on this one, and how the shutter speed captured so much detail in the crashing wave. The soft teal green of the water is really lovely as well, especially in the top left corner. My only critique is that perhaps the whites on the wave are just a touch too bright? I might suggest playing with only the highlight slider in post processing to see what happens. It can always be done selectively with a brush as well, so that your subject stays nice and bright in the frame. In any case, I love the way you captured the surfer's strength and balance within a dynamic medium. Great job!
