I honestly don't know how I missed this post, Andy... Sorry about that... Simply put, I pretty much AUTO everything... Add some subtle saturation to the image, to add some 'pop' to it... Gave him some fill light on the dark side of his face... Finally added USM for sharpness (Amount 30%, Radius .25, and Threshold at 2)... Not much, really... The image was already sharp to begin with...

Each image is different, of course... I'll apply little things here and there, depending on the shot... For example, if there was a great surfing shot but there's a few 'water splashes' in his face, I'll try to clone it out... Or if the water is overexposed, I'll try to bring back some of the details through CS6's ACR (Adobe Camera Raw); it's really good at that... That's why shooting RAW is important... There's so much data in the image that can be recovered that a JPEG file can't retrieve... Hence, I always shoot RAW...

One of these days, I'll need to sit down with y'all and show you my work flow for a particular image... You'd be surprised at how much data can be recovered if a shot is overexposed, underexposed, or lifeless... Hehehehehehhee... Thanks for asking, Andy!!!

:D

Yeah - good point about the RAW - I shoot raw for paid stuff (portraits, weddings) but hadn't done much for surfing... next time out I will switch it up.

Great thread and great timing. I sold my housing awhile back because of no time to shoot. I am, however, getting a new housing next month when the new generations of the Essex Surf housings become available. I can't wait to get back in the water and get pummeled;-)a. I may have posted 1 or 2 of these prior. Thanks, Chuck

a few more from Sunset Beach
the competition was off for a few days
the weather was perfect; yet, the surf was not
the photographers there were friendly - the equipment was very very impressive!

I took a look through a 600 mm L lens; wow! " really - thats truly awesome"

but, I am was still happy with my 70-200 2.8 with a 2x extender iii

A couple from today - Blackies Newport Beach. Based on AirButchie's recommendation I shot in RAW and I feel like I not only had better dynamic range to work with (which I knew), I also felt like the images were sharper then the JPEGs I shot in the same set. Anyway... got out later than I wanted to, but I had my two little ones in tow, so to get out of the house at all was an accomplishment haha

I have been following this thread for a long long time and am amazed at the photos you guys capture. Ive tried a lot of things in my life, surfing not being one of them. I have a quick question and I hope Im not irritating anyone by jacking the thread, but I got to know what the significance is between a board with one fin and one with three fins. I imagine its a different tool for a purpose but I dont know what. Control maybe, or does it help with stunts?

Thanks guys.
