Hello Tim From the Critique Club

This is a great action shot with lots going on and a good capture
and definately fits the challenge
It may be improved if it was a little bit sharper but the amount of surf seems to almost overtake the image
Maybe the mid tonal levels reduced would make it darker and bring the subject out more I am not very technical though
But overall a really good subject which gave you a really decent score and its so frustrating when a shot like this is overlooked because of some great 'set up' images. I can imagine your image would be quite hard to achieve and you would feel really great about putting up for the challenge only to be out voted.
But it is a natural image with good detail so just enjoy your photography and keep up the good work.

D P C voters are a hard to please lot. LOL!
Good luck in future Challenges and if you have any questions plese feel free to P M me
Regards
Sally

Great capture. The subject fills the frame nicely and the tight composition really emphasizes the subject. Your shutter speed and stop motion are spot on. The surfer himself seems a little dark on my monitor. Maybe and increase in levels via Pshop to help? Great shot regardless..... 8
