Kathy,
This guy looks really alone, this is a perfect shot for this WC. Not to mention, it is a really Cool Capture - outstanding color . . .
Well Done.

I like the soft light and pastel like colors Kathy, the "paddle" guy/gal looks even more alone in this excellent large view setting. Great entry and most apropo!

The orange life vest makes this guy more prominent. The atmosphere/light on this one is really nice. That reflection of the boarder is really excellent. I would like to see a tighter vertical version of just that, but I'll bet you got one of those too! Probably is hard, but looks like fun to me.

The pink/blue color scheme is great, especially the alternating colors in the waves. This is great as is, but I would also look at cropping about half of the sky to move the SUPer closer to the upper left 1/3 intersection. This would draw more attention to the paddler and emphasize the colors in the waves (which fits my liking of that part of the picture).

Kathy, terrific capture. This photo got my interest because I have been researching a trip to Vancouver Island next year for my 10 year anniversary. This reinforces my interest in this area as a travel/photo destination.

Great colors, and the mist partially obscuring the mountains really adds to the feeling of vastness that gives your boarder that isolated feeling.
P.S. I always thought an SUP looked like fun, partly because the boards are so big, there's lots of room for a chair and a big waterproof camera case.
