Had a good sunny day today, with the on-shore wind being favourable as well, bringing the surfers closer to the breakwater, thus making it easier to get reasonable pix of them as they take a wave. Unfortunately photographically the waves were breaking away from the camera position, so the surfers oflen turned away from the camera position.
Anyway - here's a few for your pleasure & comment
Typical Exif ... Panny FZ-200; 1/1600s x F4 to F7; EV -0,7; ISO-100, lens at 20x zoom [about 550mm FF equiv]
a)
b)
c)
d) - what do you think about this one - shooting into the sun and getting almost a 'high-key' effect?
‘D’ is by far my fave. I don’t have a problem with detailless blacks and whites ... especially if they add context and drama to the image. ‘D’ is an artistic expression of action and stress and man vs. nature ... nature is unknown, with form or detail, yet powerful ... chasing the man as he escapes barely “outruns” Nature’s clutch, Nature’s grasp attempting to bring him down, down into the unknown water, white with turbulence.
There are photographs everywhere. It is the call of photographers to see and capture those images.

I think the fourth shot is really over exposed. the details of the shot are not that defined. My favorite is the first shot. I like the action in the photo.

The 3rd shot is the most of the appealing to me. I like the silhouette and the action.
