DocRob Posted June 5, 2023 Posted June 5, 2023 Cool Gary, somehow the old movie tittle of a crap film comes to mind. 'Surf Nazis must Die'. The guys on the bridge look astonishingly calm for the mayor wipeout to come. Definitely something else and your wave looks so real, I gonna pick my board up. Cheers Rob 4 Quote
PanzerWomble Posted June 5, 2023 Posted June 5, 2023 OUTSTANDING ! Shots against the sky are the killer ones for me . 24/25/26 is "straight out of a movie" shots. Can you still lift it ? 1 Quote

I don't see a wave about to crash into the sea. I see Posiedon's men out for a ride. 2 Quote

I think it only weighs a few pounds... so it's not too heavy. More worrisome is moving it and not catching the mast on anything. 1 Quote

So, it’s easier to consider it some manifestation of godly power from the sea. Speaking of surfing… I’m finding it difficult to square all of my Germanic prototypes to “surfer dude”. 2 Quote

Expand Because it's so narrow, it looks more like a water column than a wave and I think that was your intent, Gary.
