Absolutely fantastic. Makes the viewer feel like they're right there riding the waves. Well done on an amazing shot!

Location
This was taken from my wave-runner due to the waves only happens when the conditions are just right. We have to pay dodge ball with 25ft.waves just to get to this spot that sits along the Oregon coast and the wave-runner is the only thing that can get us there safely. To be honest it scares the crap out of me getting out thru the waves and I have been surfing here for the past 45 years, having this fear is just respect for our mother ocean due to I know what can happen out here. This photo is at a secret spot that I can not name and If I did name this spot my life would be in danger so please #dontask #friendofmineTime

Lighting is everything and when you are constantly moving around to get into position for the shot it's not easy.Equipment
This was shot with my Canon 7D with my 70x200 1.8 lensInspiration
I surf all the time and this spot is really special so I got an invite to shoot my friends and because it is so secretly guarded it was a once a life time offer, 300 amazing photos plus this one.. Yeah baby!Editing
