Description

AloooooooHa! Hope everyone had a relaxing and peaceful Sun. I played "Susie" homemaker and did my laundry, cleaned house, sneered at the yard. Still better than working. I had second thoughts of posting this one as I had reservations..I sent it to Sharky, and he told me to post it....So here it is. This surfer seemed like a good foreground subject for the water fall in the background. This was still early morning so the lighting was still not very good...but eh! Once again this is shot in Waipio Valley, such a paradise to experience. Thanks for all your thoughtful comments on my previous stuff, it makes me a better photog. Have a great week everyone, I will....I'm finally on vacation this week...Yeeeeeeeeeha!! Aloha!

I have never seen a surfer surfing with a water falls in the background before. This shot is just AWESOME. The name of this water falls is Waiulili Falls which is approx 640 feet high (195 meters). A rare shot indeed. To my favorites and thank you for posting it. Maika'i! Aloha

Sigh.I hate to stick out like a sore thumb here... :( but I actually understand your reticence about this shot.It has amazing elements and is perfectly captured...but I don't see 'Dave' in this shot.Maybe I'm just spoiled by your passionate seascapes...Hope you don't take this the wrong way.It's amazing.-M :^)

What an amazing shot! The distance and settings combined to freeze the action perfectly while lending just the right amount of silkiness to the breakers and beautiful waterfall. Awesome photography!!!
