Real nice action image, Dave. Great posture and expression on the wave rider.

Great action and the posture and expression are wonderful, Dave. Since you cropped it, if you have some more canvas on the left and bottom, I think it might be even more effective with the man having some extra room to move into.

I really like this. It does bring SoCal memories of long ago summers.

Very well captured, Dave - makes for a good composition too.
