Here is what Fred had to say about this cool surf photograph.....

“I shot this photo in a trip I did to Hawaii early this year at North Shore, Oahu. I had in mind a photo of surfing using a flash slave, separate from the camera, and I waited for a perfect day with a beautiful sunset background to bring more color in the photo. I asked a friend to hold the flash for me as I held the camera, and my surfer friend was wearing a red wetsuit to make it more colorful.”

Tech Specs: Canon EOS-1D Mark IIN with a 15mm fisheye lens with Canon Speedlite 580EX flash and Pocket Wizard Plus 2 transmitter. Exposure, 1/80 sec at f/5, ISO 200.
