Taken at a competition ten days ago at Huntingto Beach CA. Sorry about the poor exposure of the surfer but the sun was at his back. I just liked the look of this shot and would appreciate your comments. Is it a keeper?

Where are you shooting from? A helicopter? or a Cliff?

I was actually on the Huntington Beach Pier and just got in a position above where the waves were cresting. The problem was the lighting, shooting into the sun made exposing the surfer very difficult. Shots taken from the other side of the pier were much better, but the pros weren't on that side :D
