filling in a vacant space . . . - anyscreenamewilldo - 09-26-2010 who me? - filling in a vacant space . . . - anyscreenamewilldo - 09-26-2010 i pointed the camera, pressed the button at a reasonably fast shutter (1/1250th) and this came out - i visited the local photoshop, booked it in, added an effect to disguise the boring boats behind (can't remember which one, sorry - long time ago) and posted it here to fill in this vacant (until now) space - enjoy . . . if possible the lens was the tokina 300/2.8, quite cheap and now discontinued - supposedly a film only lens i was told but for me it made some lovely pictures on digital - filling in a vacant space . . . - Sibbi - 09-26-2010 Hi, I love surfing very much and this is fore sure a perfect moment you catched... ...however, the photoshop effect is to much IMHO.

Normally I hate those htings, but it seems to work here. I think you captured a good moment, would be nicer with some sort of contact with the surfer, but you hardly ever see that. filling in a vacant space . . . - Sibbi - 09-26-2010 [quote name='anyscreenamewilldo' timestamp='1285499115' post='3244'] Sebastian - i'd forgotten about this shot, hmmm - here is a version with almost all of the errors removed . . . now 'fraid i've been neglecting pictures for my friends in another place so i'm off for a bit - what a relief? - ttfn [/quote] well, know it's just perfect! I love the color, the bottom turn and the very short exposure time... ...with other words - it's ready for the surfers magazine :-) very well done!
