Aussie Hello Photo

Photographer’s Note

This was taken in the afternoon light which gives it a nice soft feeling of the Aussie friendship and he is saying come on in and join me I am having alot of fun!It was taken out of my sea kayak. It was a little soft so I had to use neat image and resharpened a little.
Take care Richard.

Hello Richard,

It is always a good day when you catch a special wave photo to post. I would say that although a little soft, it is a great concept, a brilliant action shot only lasting for a split second. I love the tonal range of the darker blue fusing into the lighter aqua colours towards the centre of the barrel. The expression and stance of the aquatic subject is priceless. All very well packaged in a pleasant neutral, white frame. Thanks for the post, sensational work.

Matt
