Pity about your name beeing plastered all over the photos. WTF is that about

I imagine he sells his shots.....pretty common these days although not normally as bold and large - when you buy them you get the name removed and a nice high res picture.

this is a photo worth paying for

cost $100 for this photo from the old guy that sits on the rock with his 6ft long lense, money well spent

I have never had anyone comment on the water mark before, but spot on Ted the Kiwi, maybe the water mark is too big, but I seen some shots where people have tried to photoshop it off.

I guess in this digital age no one prints photos anymore, just veiw it on the compuer or TV, so the res is not that critical.

I want people to see that its sharp and that with the high res version you can get that 20" x 30" poster print.

Nothing worse than getting that good shot and all you can print is a 6x4.

It's not that I make a living out of this (I wish), I enjoy it and if I can pay for the gear great. I just hope one day I can get a good shot of me surfing (barrel or wipeout), rather than walking up the beach, paddling onto a wave or standing amonst the white water after the wave is finished.

So if you see me on beach with a big lens, give a wave and go for that big barrel shot, no one will know if you don't make it, its the moment before that counts

That's what I tell the wife...

Great pics, I hope one day I have the chance to get an awesome looking photo of myself while I am in the air pulling some casual-yet-cool pose just before I face plant it The camera man would only have like a 2 second window for that shot though before I look like picture #5

I surf up there all the time, I will keep an eye out

Let me know when you are up this way Doggie, on a good day I'm handy with a camera and there's never room in my neighbours tinny to head out to HITW with my gear.

Will do Chris, Mark has my number if you need to get in contact

I have to agree the watermark ruins them. It is too big and bold. Gave me a headache looking at them and does not do your images justice.
