EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Mike Blake, a surfer is seen carrying his board off the beach after an exhilarating session in Cardiff, California. The image beautifully depicts the essence of a surfer's life - one with nature and at peace with the elements. As dusk settles over the horizon, casting long shadows on the sandy shore, the silhouette of this unrecognizable athlete stands out against the vibrant sky. The warm hues of sunset create a breathtaking backdrop as he walks towards us, his surfboard tucked under his arm. The creative use of light and shadow adds depth to this composition, emphasizing both the physicality and gracefulness of surfing. With copy space surrounding him, it invites viewers to imagine themselves in his place – feeling that rush of adrenaline as they ride waves into shore. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also highlights our connection with nature and its powerful forces. It serves as a reminder that amidst our busy lives, there are moments when we can escape to find solace in activities like surfing. Mike Blake's skillful lens has perfectly encapsulated this surfer's journey from air to water; from conquering mighty waves to finding tranquility within himself. It is an evocative portrayal of passion for sports and love for Mother Nature herself.
