San Clemente at Sunset + surfer + intentional camera movement created this image which looks electrified to me!
Electric Surfer
Sunset Surfer
We spent a few days in Southern California a week ago, including 3 days visiting beaches in the area. I told myself I have photographed too much surfing, which has produced hundreds of shots that will never see the light of day. But…the golden light at sunset at San Clemente proved irresistible, especially for slow shutter/ICM images.

This photo taken at Newport Beach tickles my funny bone and makes me smile. It’s even in the place of honor on my iPhone lock screen. If you have an appropriate caption for it, let me know!
Surfer Girl
We spent a few hours at Huntington Beach, which has just been reopened after the oil spill. As always, we were transfixed by the surfing action, and I especially enjoyed watching the girls as they rode the waves.
Sunset Surfing
We are hoping to travel to California in the next month. Our son and wife will both have their second shots, my photography group will be finishing up the semester, and the beaches beckon! It’s been a long year without family, friends, and travel . . .
This image is from one of our trips three years ago.
Back to the Beach
An early morning surfer walks back to shore at Newport Beach.

Another addition to my beach series
Surfer 2
I think these will be my last surfing photos- but no promises!
Surfer
These shots are from the second day of shooting- and I didn’t have a good spot on the pier. So no closeups- both of these are cropped.
