    Project 52: Week 9, Margaret River Surf

    Margaret River is one of the many surfing hotspots in Australia, and that is the feature of Week 9.


    The first visit to one of the main surf beaches was fruitless - and this shows why:


    No surfing today

    The next day was a different story:

    Surfing!

    Project 52:  Week 9, Margaret River Surf



    But inevitably there came a time when it was:

    Goodbye wave!

    Nicely done. I've never tried capturing surfers myself, but I've seen several threads of people talking about how hard it is with the sun often in the wrong location or too harsh. I detect neither of those from these shots. Everything looks nicely lit. His face is properly exposed and the water is a gorgeous blue-green.

    Thanks John, Mike and Nanda.

    Mike - I know what you mean about harsh light in these settings. Luckily the surf was at its best that day before noon (or so those who claim to know about those things told me) so that was one problem taken care of.
