I agree with Cielde. This is a terrific composition with the angle of the surfboard, the contrast between the stone and the grass, the bright colors and the grays.

I think it's the colors that make this photo so good. Well, the composition is right on, too.

Beautiful place for sure.

Nice surfboard! I like all the primary colours and the composition in thirds. I can't even imagine surfing...we have more snow forecast today!

I can't believe you tittled this "Baywatch" :). Think this is better than that.
