p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Catching a wave ( revised )


A few months ago in Kauai the surf was up and I was photographing the waves from one of my favourite locations around the corner from Ke'e beach. These birds were cruising up and down the shore and I just got lucky getting a bird just as a wave was crashing ashore.

Revised the image by toning down the foreground rocks.

Great timing on this, Harry. Looks like a fun location to shoot.

Beautiful capture Harry!
I would tone down those hot rocks on the bottom left though...

Superb shot Chez! The bird is nice to have but the wave is a killer.

Thanks everyone. If any of you are ever at Ke'e beach, this location is just around the point from the beach. Not only does it get great waves when the surf is up, it's also a fabulous sunset location, getting the Napali range into the frame.

Perfect timing Harry (wave & bird) - love it ! I think I may have been tempted try to cool the highlights on the foreground rocks a little.

Hi Harry,

What great timing on this one. The foreground rocks are still reflecting the sun, only practical way I think would have been to have the polarizer cut those reflections. Even with those hot spots though, this makes for a very cool shot. I would suggest losing that bird in the lower right, just so that one bird can take all the visual focus as it flies next to the curl.
