Not much to say 'bout this one except "what could I improve?"
I might be submitting this to a local paper, so it has to be as good as I can make it... suggestions welcome.
Thanks!

The first thing that I didn't like about it was that the water just seems to dissappear in the background. I think that the only reason my eye noticed this first and kept going to it is because the water takes up the majority of the frame. I would try to crop it down that way there isn't so much water to draw the viewer's attention away from the surfer. Other than that, very nice shot.
