Very interesting photo but I felt it was a bit off topic. I know I wouldn't want to be standing there either.

Although this is a good photo (although it seems there's some artifacting in the spray), I just don't see a strong connection in the challenge. Is he "heroic" for standing there? I don't think so. Courageously stupid maybe :)

Scary stuff. Hero or foolhardy? I think if you increased the levels, the water would have more definition. 7

Not sure this fits "heros", but man that guy has sand!

Dramatic composition. I wish the water had more details - exposed darker, or burned in afterward.

Awesome shot!!! How on earth did you persuade that man to stand there??? Anyway, don´t know if you will win since I don´t consider this "heroic" but more "suicidal" but the shot itself just blows me away. 10

Cool photo, I am not sure how well it fits in with the theme of heroes. I can see it in a more abstract sense. 9.

Don't find this pic very heroic, although it is a nice picture.
