Fraida, WOW, WOW, this is a fantastic capture. I was going to ask where you shot it from, but read the other comments. A Vote, Fav. & Tweet from me.
Fran J Scott
Whoa!! That's a great shot!
Fraida Gutovich replied:
Thanks so much Fran....I enjoyed watching this young boy take total command of each wave! :)
Randy Rosenberger
Wow factor, Fraida! This is just awesome, and you would almost have to be surfing next to her to get this great of a close up capture! What a great capture!
Fraida Gutovich replied:
Thanks Randy......I was shooting the surfers from a pier and was enjoying myself so much that I had a strong desire to jump off and join them in the water! Good sense prevailed...and I stayed dry and happily got my shot!!! :)

Sorry, I meant the boy, not girl:-)!
Fraida Gutovich replied:
LOL! No worries.....it seems like such a male dominated sport, but I am seeing more and more ladies riding the waves!!!!!

Wow, what a great capture, Fraida! I love it, especially the wave, the water and the girl's movement! Bravo!! I do appreciate your nice feedback on my "Vineyard 29", thank you!!
Debra and Dave Vanderlaan
A really interesting composition Fraida! How did you achieve this shot? On a pier from above? Great action! Celebrate life, Debra
Fraida Gutovich replied:
Thanks so much Debra. Your absolutely correct...I shot from above on a pier in Venice, CA. Enjoyed every moment watching this young boy.
Lisa Knechtel
Outstanding action shot. Love the lines on the waves about to crash
Fraida Gutovich replied:
Thank you Lisa. Had such a great time shooting this young man. Couldn't have been older than 10 or 11 and was totally self confident in the water!
