Surf Photography
Just wondering if anyone else in here enjoys this type of sports photography. I am lucky enough to live in beautiful Barbados where occasionally magic happens.

Thanks a lot really because i have just 6 months experience. I just use flippers and swim !

I have the camera inside a waterhousing. A "gun" alike handle allows me to get positionned faster in critical area of the wave and shoot anywhere.
I also use a super wide 8mm fish eye to get really inside the wave, closer to the rider... In fact it's really a matter of positio and knowledge of the wave.

Cheers thx again
