Interesting that it is reversed in the magazine...

If they reversed it from what the image is on the first page here then it doesn't surprise me because what they want to do is keep the eye on the page. Since people that read the magazine are going to be reading left to right the eye also scans the image left to right. If the subject matter is on the left the eye will stay in the image but if leading out to the right then the eye tends to go on to the right and out of the image.

Great shot! Beautiful in every way. Congratulations.

Congratulations on capturing in such an excellent manner, an amazing moment.

Did you have to crop heavily or were you really close?

Thank you for the congrats.

I was positioned at almost full-frame to leave a bit of room for balancing later in PP. This was cropped to about 75% of original.

Stunning capture!!

Thank you, Bob.

You know, one of the photos that impressed me most was taken in Hawaii by an ex-surfer. It appeared in so many major magazines, now I'm thinking I'll never get to that level.
