I wanted the surfer/bodyboarder to be as much of a shadow as possible, so aligning him with the sun was the best chance i had to achieve this plus the nice shadow. The pic was cropped a little. As I initially shot it, it really was too centered I assumed. It was centered both horizontally and vertically (considering i shot from nearly sand level), so I uncentered it just a tiny bit vertically and I feel like it looks good like that. Your feedback is more than welcome ;). It might not be awesome, but I kind of like one of my shots this month in Kuta, Bali.
