Grimace

Another winter in Port Macquarie , NSW, Australia and another great season for some bodyboard action at Town Beach as the surf breaks closer to my spot on the end of the breakwater and the winter sun gives me some great light.

Rarely do I use a square crop for an action shot but I think it really works here as it contains the peak of the action and concentrates the eye right where it should be.

Fuji S9600: Continuous focus, 1/800sec @ f/4.9.
Lightroom and Photoshop CS3.

Visit the Surfing collection in my BubbleSite Gallery for more salt water action.

Enjoy!

    An amazing capture and yes, the square crop is perfect but it’s the moment captured in all its wildness and movement that captures me
