Intensity

THE SUBJECT:
A very intense young bodyboarder cutting across the face of a wave with his eye on the break in glorious winter light.

THE LOCATION:
Photographed from my cold, hard rocky perch halfway down the face of the breakwater at Town Beach in Port Macquarie , NSW, Australia, late on a winter afternoon.

THE MAKING of ‘Intensity’:
When all conditions are right, there are a lot of great shots to be made at this spot at that time of day and year as the low sun acts like a warm spotlight over the area.
