What can I say. You can't please everyone's taste. To each is own.

Some people like taking and voting on the same things they enjoy. I for one don't care much about the aurora bo·ring·al·is

I can't for the life of me think why this one didn't place higher. It's far better than my Pipe submission IMHO... this picture evokes a feeling in me... the feeling that I belong on land shooting, not in the water drowning :) Great shot.

wonderful shot! Lots of drama with the crashing water.
On discussion point (not a problem) would be on the crop. I like that it's wide, but I like it more with a little less on the right of the frame. It drops the surfer to 1/3rd intersection and brings focus to surfer and the crashing wave. No reduction on the comment... it really is just a conversation point.
