Another wonderful EXP and pose. Again, spot on DOF for my taste and love the breaking wave. TFS

Excellent lighting, low angle, and context with the waves behind. Exposure and details look great. head angle and composition spot on as well. Absolutely love this species. Only been to Nickerson once. It's a great place.

Looks great! I love the BG wave. Good walking pose and small droplets near the feet. If anything I would remove the specular highlight next to the leg. Nice one John!

[Alex Becker]

Nice light, action, and love the raised foot. Colors and detail look very nice. Would love to get to photograph these guys this summer, but well see how things go. Ditto the specular HL next to the leg. Very nice. TFS
