The sea was angry today. This longboard surfer was up to the challenge. Looked like a lot of work. And dangerous. He was way out there, maybe 150-200 yards. I was a little worried. Thankfully, he came back in OK after a while. Taken a few minutes ago from the deck. It was overcast with bad light and I had the telephoto extender on, so these aren't as sharp as I would like. Bigger version and a couple more photos after the jump...
