Greetings from the Critique Club
Very good stop-action shot of Tony here. And as a bonus, you get a comment from one of the best photographers at DPC: e301
If you have the time, you might want to wander through his portfolio and also read a few of his comments to other photographers on the site.
Anyhow, all this is a hard act to follow, but I'll try. My first impression of this image was that it is quite busy. I don't know Lake Havasu, but I wonder, since it's big enough for a speedboat to pull Tony, then maybe another angle would have given you more surfer and less intrusive background.
Still, you have an image you can be proud of and you scored quite well in this Challenge.
Keep up the good work.

Hard to imagine such a great capture that fits the challenge theme as well as yours finishing so low in voting. My vote is the lonely '10' |

High Contrast often works for action shots, making as it does the form of the situation stand above the simple emotion. I wonder, however, if the curve of thrown-up water isn't more important to this image than the actual figure - and it's that curve that you've chosen to discard in favour of a fairly ordinary body-shape. Good stop action, but perhaps not the most visually arresting moment. |
