Nice shots. Awesome that you can BOTH take those kinds of pics, and I have seen some of you actually surfing. You live the life most can only dream about.

Regarding the second shot. How do you keep your camera dry, shoot back wards and not manage to fall off the surf board? Great shot!

Joe from Chicago...you keep your camera dry by using a 600mm lens, tripod etc. and stay out of the water!!! If I'm in the water, I leave the camera behind take my board and enjoy the waves!! With many many folks grabbing up water housing and trying to shoot surfing have created a new hazard in the line-up. It's not bad when there is only one guy out shooting, but, now there's a half dozen out there............so anyway, unless it's a very special crew out surfing and I have been invited out to shoot from the water....I stay on the beach with the bikinis
