Thank you so much for your feedback. I was shocked my self!! After experimenting with a circular polarizer filter and shutter speeds the wind began to blow against the water and I decided to track this surfer... I got but one shot of him. I remember I knew I had the shot the moment I pressed the shutter release button. You know.. It felt just right!

Thank you Again.

Psst... Whats EFP? pardon my ignorance. #4425689

If you go to the "Phots" tab near the top of the page and scroll down to "Editors First Picks" you'll see that 8 pics come up. If you hit "Refresh" 8 more will come and so on and so on. You cannot go backwards in this feature and you can't look for specific photos. You just keep hitting refresh and you'll probably see your pic. I've seen yours several times! #4425901

My photos have gotten good feedback from non-photographers before but when I get this kind of feedback by real pro's I feel like I just got an injection of adrenaline rush. I feel hot like a toaster and I feel like grabing my camera and go trigger happy after work.

Thank you thank you thank you
