Description
The last time I saw this shot was months ago. For some reason I didn't really like it. I do like it now. I guess at the time I had some pre-conceptions as to the validity of the shot in terms of overall quality, due of an innate sense of self-criticism. It's funny how one can stifle ones judgement with overly-negative thoughts...not to say this is an excellent shot - but I do like it way more than I used to.

Far too hard on yourself Mat, but I know the feeling.... This is excellent!
Forgot to mention...Huntington Beach L.A. November 2003.
Marvelous scene!
This is a great shot. Beautiful compo, amazing colors. It's a beautiful postcard. I love it.
True words u say...I especially like the sun in the scene - if u pay attention to it u have the impression that somebody put it there with the hand...Anyway, great postcard, as Aya said..Mihai
Well I thinks its a lovely sunset and the surfer's silhouette balances the photograph nicely. :)
Don't know why you wouldn't have liked this one, because its great! Gorgeous shot =)
Yeah, know that feel, I better start working on shots when the are a few days old and I have seen em a couple of time's. Nothing wrong here, the scene is terrific.
Beautiful postcard , splendid sunset with a great composition ! excellent!!
Creates a great sense of the moment and refused to be forgotten :)
Alright then, I'll say it's an excellent shot. Reminds me of my time in Tofino, the months I worked out there. Good times, good memories. Thanks for putting this up.
Could be a wonderful promo shot for surf boards! :o) It's absolutely great! Yep, I know this feel well... most of my postings are a few days old smile
Incredibly beautiful and perfectly executed. The shadows and foreground ripples are way cool! vote :)
I am assuming that this shot was taken just before sunset because of the warm colors. I like the movement too...I like how you left him room to run. I like that the sun is setting on the other side of the scene giving it balance. I enjoy looking at photos taken at sunset, sunrise, and in the middle of the night. You have a winner here. I am sure you could sell this image to a company that makes surfboards, or a vacation planning outfit.
Looks like a travelling ad. Perfect! How i'd like to be the man in that picture!
