Very nice silhouette. Alotta mystery as the surfer marches towards the incoming waves. Also I like how the dark tones "balance" very well at the top and bottom of the frame.

Great pp. I love the pensive look on his face - is he facing his fears? Or is it just cold!

It must be a philosopher surfer who is speaking with the See before his assault on the big waves !

Great shot Aaron! The light makes the surfers look more humble..

Love the capture Aaron. The surfers stance seems most contemplative and what a backdrop!

I love such silhouette shots! This particular one sorta comes alive with the waves in the background though!

awww i <3 surfing. there is great depth created with the accent of light that is in the middle ground and glows off the surfer. The surfer is also well framed... i love this pic!
