Wow, that's a great shot. You've captured the wave's power and his relatively small size very well.

This is terrific, you really catch the power of the wave and the tensed muscles of the lone figure waiting to be engulfed. Best of all is this feels like a photographic triumph and not a post-processing one. I hope others like it as much as I do!

Brilliant anticipation shot. Took me a few seconds to work out what was going on but that really added to the impact. Beautiful colours and framing, plus nicely sharp. Solid 9 from over here with extra point for originality.
