nice shot! i'm not good in photography, but i find the waves on the right side a little too bright IMO. 7/8

Wallace  03/16/07 @045

Nice dynamic shot! As mentioned the waves seem a bit overexposed, also some cropping on the left and right side would make this image more tight IMO Have you tried to make it black&white? could be interesting Overall its a nice and entertaining piece + 9

Very cool! The subject is a bit too centered for me.

Inabottle  03/16/07 @099

Ok I cant tell, the monitors on the ship suck... but Id say a lil more details in your whites might be nice... I believe the detail is there just needs to be brought out a lil... other than that nice dynamic shot and great facial expression.

Excellent timing and great capture!! Glad to see another one from you.....I am posting a message to you. A slight lower exposure would reveal more details on the waves. Carlos

Ok.. Thanks all for C&C. I just edited the photo, tried to bring more details on waves... And added a Grayscale version... Thanks!

Madanapale  03/16/07 @209

Sure looks better Victor! Carlos

Good work Victor!!!

It makes me want to go surfing!

blackshad  03/16/07 @746

exposure was mentionned already other than that, a bettre cropping maybe? rest is great +8

Slapo  03/16/07 @781

Would prefer it to have more space on the right and less on the left... but that's probably just me. Nice sharpness, but Carlos does have a good point about the exposure.

Andy--Jones  03/16/07 @828

Very dynamic photograph. Nice energy

anastasia  03/16/07 @907

Nice sharpness! Beautiful action photography!

ThruMyEyez  03/17/07 @041

As been mentioned, slightly overexposed but good capture of the action. I might have tried to put the figure a bit higher and to the left.

Almost-Human  03/17/07 @144

the left is perfect, the only way to improve this would have been to get more room on the right.. Perfect timing..

Sammie  03/17/07 @322

great action shot! His cheeks are even blown up from the heavy breathing while he rides the rush of the wave. Nice sports capture very sharp

MsMichelleLynn  03/17/07 @445

Nice capture Victor! I agree that it's a tad over-exposed. Anytime I'm shooting surf in bright sun I step down at least by 1/2 and sometimes more to prevent over-exposure of the foam. Try using exposure bracketing if your camera offers that feature. I think the surfer is too centered her. I'd also prefer it if he were more to the left and maybe even up toward the upper left corner a bit. Michelle

PJClapp  03/17/07 @778

Nice work, its nice seeing the grey scale to go along with it. I dont know it mite be cool to see alittle bit more cropped off the top and bottum, but then again im a letter box junky

SandraS  03/17/07 @873

great shot! Nice to see you posting again! I bet it must be difficult taking these shots of surfers. Will we see a shot of you in the same action one day? I hope.

vprivat  03/17/07 @881

Thanks all for comments and critiques... I apreciate.. Sandra.. I just need to find a friend who can take some pics from me But then I wont post on my gfx... Cuz I cant surf and take shots at the same time.. But I will share with you!

ajitm  03/18/07 @288

Great Shot !!!

moserArtist  03/18/07 @311

All the constructive critics has been mentioned. Positioning of the surfer in the composition (off center, towards the left). Slightly overexposure as also mentioned by a few. Still a very nice action shot at the right time!

ARTOONATOR  03/18/07 @589

Good shot! For the dynamics you could make a panorama out of this.

dakoo  03/18/07 @958

agree with all that is said above !! Including the gr8 timing on this shot !!

painfulneck  03/20/07 @202

great capture of the action and in motion.. i would try one of these! this is very nice..

EideticImage  03/20/07 @297

You've really captured the intensity and frozen a great moment in time ^^ great shot

ClaraSoto  03/21/07 @103

It looks very good to me!!!! There is passion in the surfer and of course in the photographer!!!! neat details and great timeing!!

Martin777  03/21/07 @553

Great colors, exposition and focus. I'd prefer not centre composition only.

vanamont  03/23/07 @867

very good shot...full motion...well done

Repercutir  03/24/07 @122
