 Told the boys i wanted to get some awesome 'action surf shots' not surprisingly they were happy to play up and get some solid air time. Got some shots that I am happy with. This is the best 'competition' photo purely because the surfer (Hendo) is looking right at the camera. Most of the waves they got were rights so they had the back to the camera.



Shot taken from off the rocks. Was good fun and i got a cronic sunburn. You know its a bad sunburn when you take off your singlet and it still looks like you are wearing one.

I actually think it would be better if he wasn't looking at the camera, it seems like a novice actor who cant pretend the camera is not there.
