Congrats on another good score. Did not vote but do like this one a lot. Good minimalism and B&W is the right choice for it. Man, break out that heated wetsuit, you gotta be pretty hard core to surf the northern Oregon coast. Burrrr! :) |

Excellent lighting and photograph. It's amazing that an individual pictured as the size of an ant, can still add that much character to the photograph. |

Very nice shot zoom, serene and understated and effective. Probably would've ribboned if you'd stuck the rock in over there on the left, LOL. |

Very good job. The surfer is very very small but yet it was the first thing that caught my eye. 8 |

I like that this photo is visually interesting all over. I think that your choice of making this monochrome is a good one. |

Good composition. Well exposed. I don't think b&w convertion serve the picture; looks too monochromatic. If it were the effect you wanted, it's a success. Still a good picture. |

Image seems to need alot of work to make it clearer. If you took care of the technical problem this image would be something I would like to hang on my walls because I am a surfer and can relate to what you are capturing here |

you really went full hog on the description of the challenge....i needed a magnifying glass to see the subject...but there never was a doubt what the subject was .....great job |

very nice - i love the b&w. the curve of the wave as it lays on the beach enhances this photo in such a way to reinforce my focus on the subject. gj |

Good use of b&w; I like the way this image intensifies the immensity of the sea and sky when contrasted with the small figure in foreground..8 |

Beautiful lower part. but the upper part is very uninteresting. Perhaps a square crop from the bottom would help? -7 |

There are probably many voters who think this should be in color. Not me. I am glad you converted it - I think the depth and tonal range you got from B&W pushes this image into the top 5 for this challenge. there is so much more detail than you would ordinarily see in the play of shadows and reflection. 10 for an excellently executed image. Good luck! |

Excuse me while I think out loud:
It is a matter of some interest to me that a person in a photo, regardless of how smal, becomes the subject. I think it is always true, because whenever I see a landscape with a token person I complain that it is no longer a landscape. So it is with this photo that the thing that makes the photo an exquisite one is the landscape; the clouds, the water, the mirrored shore. But there on that mirrored shore is a tiny speck of a human being. And suddenly the photo is of a person on the shore. Soooo....this photo epitomizes the minimalism of the challenge language. It is the ideal form for the challenge and its perfect expression. |
