Hey Conor, that's a very nice image, love the feel of depth and perspective in that one. You can really sense the size of those waves. Cheers.  Smiley

One of the cleverest bits of marketing in many years was the rebranding of the sleepy seaside town of Elston - Now Surfers' Paradise and Australia's sixth largest city having recently overtaken Canberra!

Great waves there Conor, and great to have you on board!

Great shot Conner. I'll echo the comment that the depth and angle of the shot makes me want to run for cover if I were those beachgoers sitting there!

Welcome Conor, I like it, and have to agree about the depth and sense of scale. Well done.
