What can I say, I love the vignetting which emphasises Santa on his surf board.
Your composition as ever is faultless, especially the inclusion of the electric cable leading up to Santa.
I would love to see this lit.
You made my day with this on a cold wintery day in the UK. We had 2 cm of snow this morning and its nearly all gone at 13:00

The heavy vignetting creates a pleasing to look at image of what is a very unique find. Santa surfing by the beach is very unusual depiction of him. I like the deep colors here as well. Great subject captured well by your fine eye for comp.
Looks to me Tuna as if you have been to the moon for Christmas. I've always believed in Santa and this proves that he misses out on no one. Great presentation and the vignette gives it the lunar atmosphere.

Everyone - thank you for your comments and encouraging words.

Jay, though I used Photoshop to greatly enhance the misgivings of the image, the vignetting was present in the original neg. A common occurence for me (and my Voigtlander) with the combination of bright lighting and the use of the extremes in my aperture ring.
