I agree, super action shot ~ well done! #692068Jason August 06, 2004
Great shot Howard! Makes me chilly just looking at it. Are you in a plane or in the water with this one? #692091Howard D. Gibson August 06, 2004
Thank you Susan & Jason!! No way am I ever in the water! I typically shoot from one side or the other of the Huntington Beach pier with the camera at full (3X) zoom and a Tiffen 2X telephoto lens. #692259Jason August 07, 2004
Oh, I see. Very cool. The waves looked much larger than what I usually see of Ca. It must be your great perspective. #693274Howard D. Gibson August 08, 2004
You are correct, Jason. The waves on this day (1/15/04) were larger than average for SoCal. Thanks again! :-) #694591Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
