I found the time in a busy weekend to venture down to the Huntington Beach Pier...well me and 500,000 others. Ok I don't know how many people were there but I heard that number being tossed around. I try to shoot this surfing competition every year. And every year I find out that my 100-400L lens is just not long enough. Ugh... But I managed to to get some images that I think are worth keeping. Here's a few.
The surf was actually huge for a nice change. Usually Huntington is flat. This weekend we were seeing waves as big as 10-12 feet.

Here is one of those monster waves being braved by the one and only Kelly Slater.
A Kelly Slater wipeout.
