I shot this while on an editorial trip to Tahiti last month. Just wondering what others might

think of this angle. Please comment, and thanks!

I wouldn't say original as this type of shot is very often seen in any given surf mag, but its common for a reason. Its the best possible angle IMO to view a surf image. The way that the eye leads from the surfer to the camera and then off to the mountains with none of the frame being unused space at all make this on of the best versions of this shot I have ever seen.

The combination of fisheye and position makes this one about is perfect as you can get. But of course you already knew that didn't you? I don't blame you for showing this one off. Nice capture.JH

This is good!!! I tried to get a few shots while in Maui a few weeks ago. This puts anything I shot to shame. Thanks for sharing.

As Brad mentioned you do see this in surf mags. But then again it's such a great shot thats why they put them in! I love it, well done.

The shot is great, but Im kinda bummed out that it is a "butt" shot and u cant see his head. Would be nicer if he would face the photographer, but anyway, this shot is super in any other way so who really cares:-)
