Real nice Jim,
I usually avoid people in my shots at all costs, because it ruins the scene for me...
This is the exception, the surfer makes it!!
Not to mention the sandpiper.
Well done.

Mark

Bravo! So many awesome elements to this! The sandpiper, the surfer, the light, the clouds. Such a feast for my eyes! Well done! I think this should be on a bill board here in Michigan advertising vacationing in Cali!

Jim,

Did you rent the surfer and the bird for the day, great photo shoot Excellent timing on this Jim. colors and even the human+animal elements are great. Just adds more story to the picture.

I went light with just the D800 and the 14-24mm with tripod and remote release. I left the rest of the gear at home.

All comments are welcome,

Jim


Now.. that is it! Good shot!

But.. wait a minutes..
Which lens did you use? 14-24 or 16-35mm

You seem to be doing much better with 16-35 mm lens.

The little bird and reflection make this a great photo instead of a really good one.

Super, thanks for sharing.

Brilliant photograph with perfect timing. Not only for the surfer, but the sea bird too. I bet some would have cursed the surfer for running in to their frame but you have embraced it beautifully.

Great photo -- although I would contend that sunsets are never unexpected unless you're in Alaska in July!

Without the surfer and bird this would be out standing. WITH both of those elements its AWESOME! The city of HB should toss some cash your way for a big print to hang in one of their facilities.

I really like this one, except the surfer should have been a chick! Can you work that in PS?

Haha, and I was just going to say I couldn't think of any way to improve this one and then I read this!

Awesome capture! It really has some great elements all coming together as others have mentioned.
