Interesting picture, but the title really sets it off. 8

Interesting subject and good focus, but the composition does not do him justice. Would likely score higher with the girl cropped out, and put the photo into portrait.

Didn't get to comment but when saw this in voting my jaw hit the floor. This is an amazing shot - all the more that you both had the patience to try again and again to nail it. And bummer, that it was shot the day before The Spirit of a Country challenge I feel that this would have definitely been in the top 10! But gratz on being in the top 20% in a Free Study Challenge - that is great finish in my book:-) Hope things go well and you make the cover - again it is an amazing action shot and would certainly make any observer do a double take and stare at the photo if on the cover of a magazine.

Feels like a "Spirit of a Country" out take. Interesting juxtaposition of sport and patriotism. I like your precise control over focus ... not so easy.

this is a totally amazing picture...I would like to see the colors pop a bit more (only a little bit...the red seems a little dull to me)

I see that you have the system worked out for taking your camera out on your paddle board. The light is great for this shot.
Congrats on a good shot and a good place in the free study.
