it's one thing to have shots that most people don't, or can't take, it's another when the shots come out great, and it's a subject people actually want to see! Great work!!

Some insane stuff. You've given me new respect for surfers (and the photographers out there with them). Peter Mel Heat1.jpg is my favorite in this group.

Oleg Chermoshniuk		19-Mar-2005 16:40
There are excellent action shots and some scary big waves ! Great captures, Art ! definitely got my vote.

Gus R.		10-Mar-2005 21:25
Great shots!! Looks like the Wedge on steroids. Those cats are in a league of their own. You really put your focus into to the power of those monsters. I'm just learning my way around a 20D - no buyer's remorse after this gallery;-) I echo; what lens? Thank you - g

Art		09-Mar-2005 19:13
Thanks for all the comments! I was shooting from a boat in the channel. You have to really give all the credit to the surfers out there pushing the limits all day long! Scott, that photo is an AP photo I believe.

scott		07-Mar-2005 17:16
Dear Art, I saw this picture http://www.sptimes.com/talkback/freezeframe.shtml on the Saint Petersburg Times Online and wondered if it was yours also? scott

Eldar Kadymov		07-Mar-2005 04:46
Simply breathtaking, awesome gallery ! Tough to belive on how much effort you might've invested in making these stunning shots, holy smokes !

Gordon Burns		04-Mar-2005 09:51
Awesome shots. Awesome waves! How did you get these? Looks like you were in the water with them, so was it any special camera in a water tight housing?

David Christensen		04-Mar-2005 05:55
Fantastic! What lens?
