if not now, when? by graemestevens

if not now, when?

'twas a very grey today but luckily for us (he said sarcastically) it was also very warm with 92% humidity.
Mmmmm, moist.

As it's Sunday there's another image here:

Oh I love this! Great hair!!! Super shot.

he looks as if he's going to wait forever - it's the pose and body language - almost as if he's poised to throw himself over a bridge than enjoy going surfing.

I love getting pictures of surfers. Specially after a winter storm. Temps can be below freezing. Haven't been out yet this year but it will happen. (BY out I mean to take pictures not to surf). This is a great shot his(?) hair sort fits you photo style.

Nice composition

Great title! His wet hair adds to the shot - fav
January 27th, 2019  
I thought at first you'd done something gruesome to his head and then realised it was wet hair ...
January 27th, 2019  
Great composition and processing. Lovely title.
January 27th, 2019  
I love this! One of my dream shots! It's on my photography bucket list! FAV!
January 27th, 2019  
I really like the simplicity of the composition. There is a lot to look at and I like that you have him looking out to sea.
January 27th, 2019  
Love this fav
January 27th, 2019  
I like how the surfboard draws us into the sea despite being on the edge.
January 27th, 2019  
great composition - he seems quite wistful and tentative
January 27th, 2019  
This makes me wonder if he's coming or going.
It also makes wonder if daring to set foot on your beach was worth the risk. The waves don't look very big. ;)
January 27th, 2019  
I just love this - the bit of color is perfect.
January 27th, 2019  
There is no wave for this lonely surfer.
January 27th, 2019  
@yaorenliu I think he was due for a disappointing day :(
@365karly1 Thank you very much :)
@humphreyhippo He was going but taking one longing glance back at a flat sea...poor lost soul
@koalagardens Thank you very much :)
@taffy Surfboards will do that ;)
@moviegal1 Thank you very much :)
@salza He was kind enough to arrange himself in that pose for me ;)
@jenp Thank you so much - for a change I didn't have to wait long for a shot to present itself!
@haskar Thank you very much :)
@fbailey I could have...
@lyndamcg Thank you very much :)
@yorkshirekiwi She says it so much better than I ever will ;)
@hrs Thanks very much :)
@olenadole Thank you very much :)
@joansmor Upon closer inspection it is a he (saw him later getting changed in the parking lot...should have wrapped himself in a towel...)
@shannejw He did seem a bit down in the dumps...probably the lack of decent waves...
@jamibann Thanks very much :)
@kklinck I think I'd rather the cold!
January 27th, 2019  
@graemestevens haha, I def prefer the cold and the snow as opposed to the heat...which also get in the summer.
January 27th, 2019  
He looks suitably bedraggled. The things that our passions cause us to put up with, in their pursuit!
January 27th, 2019  
I can see the disappointment he has in the show of waves, without seeing his face.
January 27th, 2019  
i do like the sense of weariness that oozes off this image...
January 28th, 2019  
Nicely framed, you image does tell a story
January 28th, 2019  
Like the messed up hair
January 28th, 2019  
@jgpittenger He refused to brush it ;)
@nicolecampbell Thanks very much :)
@northy I was pretty tired at the time as well ;)
@helenhall Anybody would think he wanted to go surfing...
@gardencat I think he just needs ot wash his hair and buck his ideas up ;))
January 28th, 2019  
Love it.
January 28th, 2019  
@golftragic Thank you kindly :)
January 28th, 2019  
Pensive and looks like the waves are not on his side.
January 30th, 2019  
@joysabin They definitely were not on his side
January 30th, 2019  
Great comp. Another good beach shot.
January 30th, 2019
