This was one of my top three choices. Am shocked not enough votes put it in the top three. Great sunset and like the off centered subject. Good work! I gave you a 9

hah thanks NightShy, I really appreciate it. Sadly, a lot of people didn't like the fact that the boy was on the left side and looking out of the shot. Oh well, always next time. I got higher than a 6 which was one of my goals!

Man, I thought for sure this was a winner! What do I know? I thought you should've scored WAY higher.

love this image. great sky and wonderful composition!

Great color, only thing I would change is to have the figure on the right side of the frame so he is looking into the frame rather than out of it.

Simple and nice colors. I like the profile
07/19/2005 05:29:40 AM

Is that a really short board, or just a funny angle? :) Great colours.

excellent color and use of silouette ... to me there is just too much non productive empty space on the right. It really robs from the shot ... seems like an attempt to force the rule of thirds when sometimes that isn't the best thing.

Beautiful color adjustment - Would have liked it cropped / composed with the majority of the space in front of surfer rather than behind.

Colours and silouhetted person work really well together however the placement of the person doesn't feel right. To me he should be on the right side since he's looking left. This would make the image feel more dynamic as the person would have space to look into.

Nicely done
07/15/2005 02:08:03 PM
great colour

beautiful image
07/13/2005 03:50:16 PM
this is a pretty picture, but like many other photos in the challenge, it doesnt capture the "action" of the sport
i would score it higher than i am simply because its a beautiful photo, but it doesnt meet the challenge to me

Lacking action (Waves). Nice color, lighting, dof and comp.
07/13/2005 11:29:31 AM
:)

doesn't show any action.
07/13/2005 09:44:23 AM
Beautiful use of color.
07/13/2005 08:15:55 AM
Beautiful colours.
07/13/2005 05:51:26 AM
This is a really nice image, but I think I'd like it better if the surfer was looking into the frame instead of out of it.

Very nice color, subject. Well done!
