ok last post i was told to try lowering the iso and shooting faster shutter.
so here we go, tried going to iso 200, 2000, f/8, 400mm
also put a lot more sat and contrast in it than i normally would to see if i can get to where it's not to flat. seem to have a habbit of posting flat shots.
thanks in advance!

Much better than your last post - not flat by any means. I would have cropped the shot a little tighter, but that's just me.

Just watch when you add contrast to surf photos like this. If you add too much contrast the skin looks too orange and fake.

An easy way to tell if a photo has had too much contrast added in post processing is the colour of the skintone.
