I just... LOVE IT! I have seen thousands of moments like this but never seen it captured this way. I am learning and getting inspired with this one.Message edited by author 2013-01-26 19:27:16.

Beautifully minimalistic - just the essentials, but a very powerful and compelling image.

Well son of a gun! What a fantastic image. My first impression is the surfer dude is wearing a suit. So a foggy grey blurry world where a businessslave flips off the world and heads to sea. Maybe he will come back, maybe not.

How is it done? In camera or PP?

Wow Ben, what an awesome response to your shot! The blur and ghostly figure make this such an intriguing scene. Congrats on a great finish in the FS!

Somehow I'm not surprised this is yours Ben. It seems you are fast becoming my statistically favourite photographer. This is delightful and happy to see so many others thought so too. Well done a such a high score

I love the contemplative feel to this. Beautifully composed and just enough detail to lend some substance to the dreaminess.

To be one with the sea. It must be a surfer's dream. This is incredible.

Breathtaking, or rather, breath itself...

Nice tones and fascinating lines. Sometimes (often) omitting detail amplifies the picture. This is one of those. Thank you.

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

This is very interesting. I like it!

I love this! Not your typical 'surfer' shot. It's almost ghostly.

I find I am attracted to this image, not sure why exactly. I do like the ambiguity of it, well done
Post actions
Definitely the nicest capture of this genre I've seen for a while.
