Would be nicer if the framing did not cut off his feet.

I agree, but unfortunately, I think I was focusing more on his head than the whole bird.

So original.

Wonderful shot, did you set it up?

No, it was a random photo..

Thank you for the fav , Friiskiwi .)

Congrats on first, well deserved!

Author, the one to the right is a dead ringer for William Howe, heh heh!

No wonder we won!

Great the Photographer is the focus of this shot.

Terrific. Losing your surf board in this rough surf and be dangerous and exhausting. In this case it will be a photo to show the grand children. Beautiful catch of the wave with the wind spray. Right on theme.

Well done, the eye goes directly to what looks like a lone swimmer, in the high res you can see more swimmers.

Right on the spot, author! Great pict.

Boy, I'd hate to be in his position (That I can't swim is an entirely different issue )
Great shot. Love the waters.
