Continuing with my Maui/Hawaii album
, this shot was taken at a beach in Wailea, the place was really nice and there were a lot of guys surfing and having fun. This one was one of them and as you can see the colour of the water was very nice and there were some pretty high waves.

Located at the south part of the island, Wailea is an exclusive area in Maui in which we can find the best beaches for surfing and snorkeling. It’s crowded with luxurious condos and resorts and it also posses a wide variety of natural surroundings

Hi christian,

I guess you used the tele for this shot. The fact is that it has a great quality. I really like the details. The timing is also perfect thank to the right choice for the 1/1000. Very good work!

Hello Christian,
Wow. Great shot. For a moment I thought he was underwater. Beautiful colors of the sea. Nice wave above him & foam below for good balance. Picture quality is great. Well done. Regards. Latiff.

Hi Christian. Great action shot. I love the colours you have captured in the wave. Well timed and composed. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Hello Christian,

Did you get to do some surfing as well? I like this shot but perhaps mvoing the surfer to the side or corner would make for a more effective view. The colours look great though and they represent the warmer climates well. Parece que el clima esta mejorando para nostros tambien. Saludes.

Bonjour Christian,
beaucoup de dynamisme, de mouvement et de fraicheur dans cette phoro sportive. Je ne me suis jamais aventuré dans ce style de prise de vue.
Un cadrage excellent, il fallait être vif.
Amicalement.
Daniel.

Hi Christian, this looks fantastic, the colour and just where the surfer is place high on the wave. I definitely would have preferred a verital composition for this one or even him been placed more to the left of frame. Well done.

Hello Christian,

This shot, the earlier of your two surfing shots from Maui, is even more compelling than the one I critiqued earlier. You carptured the "big wave" at least as well as the surfer seen. The colors are spectacular — sort of a turquoise blue-green, and the resolution is flawless.

Warm regards and have a good weekend,

Bulent

Hi Chris, excellent beach shot! Nice colors!
