Wiping out Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Here's another in my series of surfing shots. This guy was wiping out and it end up not being a good ride for him but a nice shot for me. This shot was taken very early in the morning with little light so the image was a bit noisy and dark due to no F-stop and a slow shutter. I have touched it up in PS to brighten it up. The water splashing up around the surfers head has the sun shining through it and the yellow surfboard frame the subjects head nicely.

Nice colours on this shot, I think that it would work well as a B&W shot as well. A little bit of sharpening (understandibly not your fault) would help. Other than that, great snag.
