very nice silhouette shot. definitely fits the challenge. their outlines seem a bit soft and it would be good if you could get the shadows to be blacker. 9

True surfers don't care what season it is, but this is a nice photo. The color reflecting in the water is great and the forming waves show up well. The silhouetted surfers seem to be enjoying the beauty before jumping in and your composition emphasizes the vastness of the ocean.

Great composition.The lighting is perfect. I think the piece can do with out the horizon line.

Surprised to see there weren't more surf shots! You went for that nostalgic surfer mood like in the beginning of "Good Vibrations" rather than the action shots of when the refrain hits. The beginning of the song always did more for me too.

great color. only thing that would make this better would be seeing the subjects in more action. Looks like they are about at a standstill now

I like it. Meets the challenge and you didn't use the name of a season in your title. :)
