My first out of studio shot using natural lighting. I do not know if I like it. I am just wondering. Hope you all enjoy it. I just would like to say i got up very early in the morning for this shot.

Good catch, to me it looks almost like he's holding onto the boat. I like how this photo was taken around sundown, it gives it a nice soft look. Nice job getting the surfer at the peak of the action. The horizon looks slightly tilted but it's not a big deal. I wish you would have gotten closer, but I realize you probably had limitations on zooming.
I like the tones of this, nice amount of brightness and contrast. It's a great shame the boat wasn't more towards the left of the photo. Nice work, John.
I find it very unfortunate that that boat is in your shot and distracts from all that this shot has to offer, the light in the 'splash' is fabulous, the composition of the surfer and his 'frozen position' are really excellent. Good capture.
I like this a lot, but I have mixed feelings about the boat in the background. It seems like the surfer gets a little jumbled in with the boat. I like the perspective that the boat adds, but I probably would have liked it better had the boat been further on the left.
