Default Santa Cruz surfers

We had some wonderfully warm weather along with good waves recently. I went to Santa Cruz to get some surfer shots, and it paid off with a lot of activity. The following are a selection of some of the shots. C and C is always welcome. Additional shots can be seen at www.flickr.com/photos/larryhendler

When I went through the images, the thing that I appreciated were the expressions I managed to catch, varying from the absolute satisfaction of that grin, to a variety of levels of concentration, and even glares. I have a couple of shots of the surfer grinning on my flickr site, and I cant help but smile when I see his happiness.
