i haven't really thought about it... if some of my stuff goes to posters in one day, then this one's not gonna make the cut... they need to be fresh... i might have to find a solution...

agreed bra...prosurfer is such an ass..anyone that calls themselves prosurfer is obviously a kook who has no idea..he pops up slagging everyones pics..he is a class A tit
maroubra1st453 days ago Reply
Prosurfer and Surville, you seem like very bitter people. I have not seen you make a positive comment so far. Are we able to vote them off, as although I can ignore their immature banter, it would be easier not to have to see their infantile and prejudiced comments.

I got know idea of what all theses people are on about the last few days, but whatever because your an amazing photog that produced one of the best photos ive seen at this spot. great job an take no notice of that dribble
Captain farty pants476 days ago Reply
Im sorry, that was a bit below the belt. Anway since its a surf site why were you talking about pictures in a zoo?? There are different sites for people like you :)
Captain farty pants477 days ago Reply
Im glad of that surfville. I wouldn't want you tugging away on your little cock looking at a picture of me anyway ;)
40477 days ago Reply
prosurfer, whatever that is, do you shoot photos? are you a hater? what? i'll just show what i do but i don't think i claim anything here. i've seen shitloads of good photos from there, this only one of my takes, so if you don't agree with couple hundred of other guys then something must be really wrong somewhere. everyone has an opinion though. i'm sure my work's not for everyone, but hey, how we can keep everyone happy? why don't you post something of your own and then i'll post something i didn't want to post here because i planned to make some coin out of it? how does that sound for you? it's time to step up, boy.
Captain farty pants479 days ago Reply
And there was me thinking it was a monkey and it was you the whole time. Good day out in the zoo wasn't it.

wow. AMAZING PICTURE. i would love to be there it looks beautiful. you are an amazing photographer you should be getting $1,000,000 for this pic, especially for the hard work you put into it, and especially for if you didnt make it out and you crashed at the end or somethin. this is my new desktop background. very inspiring picture!

man..... thats quality. your a legend..!
40485 days ago Reply
thanks a lot for a nice words. actually, it's not that complicated to do a such a shot, no dramas for going over the falls as long as you are not too high on a face. have to be at the bottom and trust that it'll hold it's shape and folds over nice and clean.
nelch485 days ago Reply
sick shot! the next 30 seconds couldnt have been nice for you! id say it was worth it though.

Hey 40, are you a dude or a chick. If you're a chick, are you married? Quality pic. Loving your work!!
Mark from Durban487 days ago Reply
What an awesome shot, especially at such a critical position. Would love to know how you bailed from this, but deffinately one of the best shots ive seen in a very loooong time.
Sunshine Surf Safari/ Green Room487 days ago Reply
wow thats a beautiful angle of that wave, i spent a month an a half in tahiti waiting for this, you nailed a amazing pic great work.
Sai487 days ago Reply
Le décor est splendide, les montagnes sont superbes dans la lumière. Merci 40 ...
Mike487 days ago Reply
One of the best wave pics ever...
westmonster487 days ago Reply
Agreed, the mountain backdrop helps make this pic a complete classic. We never see pics from inside the gaping maw of this wave, they say its so shallow, and pulls so hard off the reef that swimming under when it holds any size is nearly impossible.
surfMAINE487 days ago Reply
not only is it a beautiful wave, but the juxtaposition of the stunning backdrop just blows me away. nice shot.
BLatimer487 days ago Reply
I would love to see a picture of a Teahupoo monster from an under water angle
BLatimer487 days ago Reply
Watch me as i get towed in...watch me as i get deep in the barrel...watch me as im thrown face first into the reef
rabatter487 days ago Reply
Awesome
Kiwi John487 days ago Reply
I think 40 is actually an extremely talented ex-navy dolphin with a camera strapped on his ass, trained by "the man from atlantis" and "the silver surfer" and given the purpose of showing us all how the sea and those who surf on it are so incredibly cool. Keep it up flipper!
