Default A lone Surfer and a Wonderful Cornish Sunset

This shot was a spur of the moment shot, and I am so pleased with the outcome of it. It really summed my holiday up the surfing and the wonderful sunsets. Hope you like it as much as I do.

Sunset Surfer

Thanks for Looking.

What a pretty shot. I love how you caught the rays of sun on the surfer.

Perfectly timed shot Try. Iove the way the rays from the setting sun are bursting off the board. The colours are goergeous. Your photographs are bringing back so many memories of my time in Cornwall. I love this one buddy.

Fantastic sunset, Great Backlit silhouette and great composition. Sometimes the spur of the moment shots like these are the best ones, it's true in this case for sure.
Thanks for sharing this
Michael.
