he wanted something fresh to give to his parents for Christmas. he hasn't decided on what print yet - he loved them all.

we headed to the beach - he loves surfing and longboarding. considering it's the middle of winter surfing was out of the question. (no wetsuit) longboarding happened.

Some really nice shots here. Perhaps a collage is more the order given that he likes them all.

I'd have to agree. I don't think there is one (or two) that are any better than the rest. They are all amazing.

I am curious though, on #14, what is he holding up that distorts his eyes/face like that? It's very interesting.

the distortion is from his reading glasses.

Beautiful works, Pat.

I love not only your ideas and perspective on taking these wonderful shots, but you delivers perfection as well on the final results.

much love guys.

I have too agree with everyone, they are all exceptional, so maybe a collage will be best for his choosing. You're a major reason why I ended up getting the 35L for my 5D2... and I have no regrets! Your work is inspirational

The 5d2 + 35L is a dream team. I'm glad you love yours.

Thanks for the kind words.

What an impeccable style you have.....very nice!

You incorporate a lot of backlighting.
Do you every worry about damaging your camera or do you use some sort of filter?
I pretty much never have the sun in the frame because I worry about damaging the camera sensor...is that on old wives tale?

Nice pictures by the way, you seem to always get your subjects to relax and that is half the battle.

Where are you located?

About shooting into the sun, don't worry about it. Digital sensors aren't sensitive to the sun, and sans 30 second exposure directly into it with a long lens, you will be fine. Just shoot!
