I cann't see the pictures, just red "x", can anyone else see them?

[cbock]

yep. i can see them. nice timing. i like the sequence of the last shot. but, i think they might look better as individual images or maybe with a boder around each one. that's a cool capture for sure.

thanx. cbock, you shoot surf at all? any suggestions for changes,such as different setting or did i prety much nail em?

[Steve Parr]

Nothin' but red "X"s here...

[BlueTit]

I can see them now, look like great action shots to me. The shots with the dolphin are amazing, do they interact with surfers usually?

#2 is awsome and I kinda like the dolphin shots put together in one pic like that. Gives a sense of motion. Almost looks like teh dolphin wants to play with him. lol. Good shots

thanx... a few breaks around here its very common to have dolphins in the lineup. it was cool to actually catch them with a camera this time.

nope. i don't 'shoot surf'. but, the more i see, the more i'd like to try. it looks like a fun challenge. i'd say you nailed them. :)

love the dolphin compilation

[calicokat]

Great series with the dolphins, that would freak me out at first seeing something big and gray jump behind me while surfing

[Nidz]

Yeah I like the dolphin pics. They add a little something else to the photos. Nice one.

Jeremy, I was also shooting the comp on Saturday and Sunday. Were you the kid with the Nikon D70 and the 300?

[wazmunstr]

dolphins! man i miss florida... great capture man! luck of the draw.

[thecovered]

hooookup. no i was the guy with the 20d and the little 400mm. i was using the monopod. which photographer were u?

[hooookup]

I was shooting with the 500 f/4 I think I saw you up the beach. I was in the area of that guy shooting from the orange ladder.

[thecovered]

you had a backpack on most the time? i wish i had a 500/600 prime. one day hopefully. were you shooting for fun or ?

[hooookup]

I had my lenstrekker600 with me but I didn't have it on most of the time. I think you might be thinking of Sean Rowland from Surfshot Magazine. He had the 600/f4 and his backpack on most of the day. Most of the time when I shoot its for fun but I have been approached lately by people interested in buying my work for advertising and personal use.

also, were you shooting at Seaside Reef a few weeks back? I ran into a guy shooting a 20D with the 400 5.6 out there.
