AWESOME and such a stunning image!! #980515Michael E. Brodie January 18, 2005
Hey M! I was on Maui and at "Jaws", but about a week and a half later. The waves were considerably smaller then and the weather wasn't nearly as conducive to shots like yours, but it was still spectacular. The 300mm on the 10D pulls like a 480mm and it really makes your image pop! Superb timing on your shot, too. The wake from the board down the face of the wave is the perfect grace note.Mike Brodie #1046261

An aggressive yet delicate balance where nature allows us;the delicate humans of nature, an opportunity to flirt with such power.Here, is greatness in a moment captured by a photographer.
