Photo: Momentary Flight over the Pacific
Picture: Boogie board (skimboard) surfer flying through air over ocean wave, Balboa Island, Newport Beach, Southern California Coast.

This has always been one of my favorite portfolio-worthy people shots from when I was working on my California Coast book. As such, I think this also a great image to introduce my new four-page Los Angeles / Orange County Coast Regional web gallery. For those that wonder about the perspective of this shot, I was actually standig on the Balboa Pier looking down at the kids doing the skimboarding. This way I was able to fill the frame with water, and eliminate the very bright sky from the scene.
