Great Turn

After much gnashing of teeth, I finally decided to run with this shot of a surfer at Snapper Rocks. Probably not the best shot technically, but there was something about the guys pose that kept bringing me back to it.

Main photos of the day is at http://365project.org/terryliv/365/2014-08-27

I should have also said in the write up of the main posting that Snapper Rocks is the home surfing spot for the current world surfing champ Mick Fanning and former world champ, Joel Parkinson.

SOOC - Best on black
Did he fall?!

Fantastic action capture! Looks like a talented surfer, I can see why you keep going back to it :)

Another great choice. It looks like an awesome right hander. Although I prefer left handlers as not surprisingly I'm a goofy footer :)

It might be the unnatural body position that keeps drawing you back. Great shot!

What a great action shot and magnificent timing. Usually when I take photos of surfers, by the time I have got the focus they have fallen off ha ha.
