Nice series. # 2 and 6 are my favs.

Does the girl in # 4 only have one arm?

wow, great shots. props to the girl in the 4th pic to keep surfing.

[webtech]

How big of a lens are you using for these? Were you on the beach or out in the water with them?

[phocalphobe]

disneydork06, thanks for the kind words and yeah, bethany is competing with the best and does quite well.

webtech, my usual setups is either a 1d2n or 1d3 hung on a 600is with or without 1.4 or 2.0 tc, all shot from the shoreline.
