What a great opportunist shot. However, I'd like to know what the out of focus line is at the back of the head. For me, it slightly spoils a really good photo. I still think it's worth 8 though.
Good action shot. Burned out stripe on the water and the rope or whatever that out of focus line is on the left aren't very appealing. Might have dialed down the exposure and just let the guy go silhouette. Not voting, just commenting. Good luck.
