guess you don't like any professional sports then? this surfer looks fit! big ol' arms! multicolored weed stickers are apparently not making this guy eat too many cheetos

oh yeah... off of the soapbox...

i love the intense look of concentration of the surfer in the midst of the chaotic splash of the water

This is really great. I love the colors of the water and surf board. Just a tad out of focus, but a really good shot none-the-less.

This would have been a 10 pointer if only the shutter speed was higher (to get more 'frozen in time' effect). I can give examples of other images once the challenge is over. Regardless, these pics are hard to shoot. I respect the composition, the exposure, and give it 8/10. Perhaps it would do good in B&W? Just a thought.
