Nicely captured.

Good one Mark, I'm a sucker for anything to do with sunsets and getting one with action like this is a bonus !

I like the 2nd image, Mark, you have caught a lot detail in the spray around the surfer.

I like them both, Mark. Great light, nice colours. Can I ask what you are using to create the artistic effects in the first image?

cs6 - basic pp. Sharpen, crop, incr orange saturation, convert to 8 bit, apply cs6 filter gallery effect, Nik color fx pro 4 - apply perecptual saturation and add a red gradient filter to the sky. Finally sharpen just the surfer and use the liquify tool to create the artistic waves. Sounds complicated but its pretty easy. It just takes a bit of fiddling around and lots of fun too.

I like #2 better...I can understand that one better. I like the action and the sun hitting water spray very nicely. Love the surf. I missed it badly.

#2 looks great

I like them both, I sometimes play around like this too though not with as much success as you

The second one is just fabulous with the silhouette, the action and the spray. The first one is great editing, just not to my taste. Well done.

Number 2 is a very nice image.
