Surfer's Secret

Sunset in La Jolla, CA. Almost left before the sunset because it looked really hazy. Glad I stayed around a little longer... This sunset came on real fast. I wanted to get a California tone by having two surfers in the picture. Yep 2.

Man and Nature gallery, no?

Otherwise a fantastic composition and story.

Craig,

Beautiful image! A wonderful take on a popular subject (under the pier...) Having the surfer guy walking is terrific. The second one I assume is riding the wave on the left? Too small to make out though. The surfer walking - kinda wish he was more blurry, really nitpicking though!.

I am going to go ahead and move this to the Man and Nature gallery after posting my comment here. Hopefully it makes sense. Let us know if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks!

Lon

What great light!
If you can't find this post, check Man and Nature, where it should be.
Bust still, what great light!

Great color in the sky and your timing is excellent for the pano. You can upload a 1200 pixel wide version and it will automatically create this size and a thumbnail. The larger size makes it easier to critique.

Very nice image. The strong central focus works great here.
