World class surfing at Bonzai Pipeline.

Surfing Sampler by David Stephens, on Flickr

I'm going to put together an extensive Album of shots from a surf competition that I attended yesterday. Here's the very beginning of the Album:

^^^Very cool shots, DC. Looking forward to the rest of your album.

Dave,
If you are staying on the North Shore, I would try to see if you can get some with the sun behind the waves at sunset. The water is so clear it should look pretty good.
Lucky to witness a competition of that caliber.
I'd like to see if you have some of Kelly Slater or Jaime O'Brien.
Old guys rule

Kevin, this is about the best that I did at sunset:

Sunset Rowers by David Stephens, on Flickr

I didn't see Slater on the waves, but he came into Roy's for dinner on our last night. I only stayed for a couple of heats and got some great, young surfers. I'm trying to figure out who they are by looking at World Surfing League profiles, but not getting very far.

I'll probably just end up posting everything and linking images that are series, like guys in the barrel. Maybe some of our guys will recognize the surfers.

Dave

Some amazing surfing shots here Dave.

I'm just working on a new China Slideshow to give to a local travel group.
Here's one of The Bell Tower in Xi'an taken on a damp and misty evening.

The AF on that camera/lens combo is stunning. Coming right at you and sharp as a tack.

On last surfing shot.

In The Barrel

Surfing Sampler by David Stephens, on Flickr

It's not every day that you get to see world-class surfers challenging the Bonsai Pipeline, with perfect conditions for photography. I got so many great shots that I don't know what to do with them all. I've got a couple of ideas, so, when I finish, I'll provide a link to Flickr. Of course, you can always click on any of my images to go to Flickr to see them full-screen, if you like.

Dave

Looks like classic Fuji film. Surprised by the color of the sky though.

I used to love this look. Now, ... it's funny how our tastes change.
