In the wilds of California, they spoke about him in hushed and awed whispers. Criminals would cower in fear at his name, and people would cheer if ever he was spotted.
As the wind blew, and the sun beat down upon that sandy beach, another call of distress went up. A woman was being assaulted by a rowdy bunch of surfers! Would nobody help? Who would step up to help her?!
Then, like a bolt of lightning from the clear blue sky he came, leaping from the grasses and flying through the air. Was it he? They cried.
Yes! With his famous call he came out of nowhere to another poor soul's rescue. Steve, The California Boarder, flew into the scene and fought off the surfers that dared sully his precious beach. |

| A little noisy in the sky with a distracting sensor spot that could have been cloned out in advanced editing. With that said you photograph is a nice action shot with great stop motion. |

| Nice action shot. A bit of noise in the sky, but I dont think it hurts the image. |

| That is freakin' cool! Great stop action, but it begs the question, what the hell is going on here? Two minor critiques, get your sensor cleaned! I counted 4 obvious specs of dust. Also, your blue sky is somewhat grainy, I'm assuming you shot at ISO1600, since this is advanced editing, do some selective noise reduction with the noise reduction software of your liking. |

| What a cool action shot. Did you edit the person separately? He almost has a cut and paste feel. |

| Great catch. Portrays the fun quite well. Maybe clone out that dust spot near left edge, though. |

| Hope his landing is smooth. Great action shot, with the appearance of being about 6' in the air. Grass and waterboarder look a tad overprocessed. |

| I'm a bad snowboarder after skiing so long. I guess I'd stick on sand too. Sure looks like fun. This would of been great for the action challenge too. |

| Whoa! Awesome action shot! Even the plants show movement- agains the sand surfer which adds to the feel of his moving very fast into the wind. Well done! |

| This is a fab action shot. I really like how he's suspended over the weeds (sorry forgot their actual name). It gives his height off the ground such balance and depth. A little grainy but it adds to the photo for me. Nice timing on this shot, can see why it's your gem. Oh...almost forgot the best part. His expression while in the air is wonderful. You captured one of those moments. Well done. |

| I've heard of this before, we have dunes near where I live, but I've never seen it/done it, but it looks so cool! Great action shot. I love the black clothes against the light colors. |

| The whole image is somewhat soft for me. The composition is nice... the sensor dust is unfortunate. |

| nice capture, but you have some noise, and dust spec on the left side of the image. also too bad the tops of the grasses and the sand are over exposed. |
