Surfs up!

While on holiday last week in Madeira I came across a surf competition and took a few snaps. I would be interested to know what people think about these two crops as I don't usually "do" action shots. They were taken from the beach with my 18 - 250 pentax. My concern is that they are not sharp although I do quite like the sense of movement.

Cheers,
Andy

It's not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog!

Both very good actions shots but as you had originally thought they are lacking that overall sharpness which would make them really good.

Not a lot wrong with your images, they have a good sense of action.

Take care.
