Hi Andy,

This is very nice, the level of detail is superb, just look at those water droplets. Colours are spot on with greatdetail in the whites and blacks. Expertly exposed. Like the way it is riding the wave.

Nice work

Regards

Rob

I'm envious! Watched a pair courting today from far too far to get anything. Great details.
