Andrew,
I think a crop is called for here, maybe the top third, I really like the translucent part of the wave. And the crop would make it stand out.

I really like this too, and I think you could crop it some and as Willard says, make the wave stand out more. The best thing is try and see what you like best. Great capture and perfect timing! #3030864

Hello you two,
Right, I've had ago at cropping the non-action areas out, what do you think?

Thanks,

The cropped version is much, much, better.
Well Done.

I think it is excellent Andrew! I wish I could surf like that, but all I ever learned to do was water-ski. No waves when I lived in AL! #3034159

Excellent capture Andrew! I love the cropped version as it keeps the focus on the wave and rider. Great time of day for this, truly accentuates the passion of the surfer. Nice. #3156456
