for me, the dark clouds give the photo a dramatic feel

beautiful composition and colours - love the sense of space, the force of nature and man harnessing that power.

Top 10 for sure. I really was struck by the composition colors and the feeling that it evokes. Well done. Would have liked a little more sharpness on the waves. 9

I like the hint of looming clouds the kite points to.

I like this better than the shots that crop closely on the surfer. This seems more complete, not to mention more of that beautiful sea. 8.

This was a great action shot. Some problems here for me are too much whitewater below the guy and the lack of contrast between parachute and that dark cloud. Cropping it a bit tighter would elminate some of the whitewater while still showing that nice ocean blue-green and the whitecaps of that rough sea. hard to deal with the dark cloud there, so that's life. Good shot overall, 5.
