Taken the same day as my other “foggy” Maine shots. It was a cold March day but there were already surfers enjoying the waves! The fog and the black wetsuit combine to make the surfer look like a shadow.

Such a cool shot in the fog, Surfers are sure dedicated bunch arent they
love this thick fog, great image
Great capture…almost surreal.
Fantastic capture, the fog really enhances the mood in this composition. Excellent image.
Awesome, absolutely awesome
Wonderful mood. Fantastic series!!!
I guess those surfers couldn’t wait until warmer weather in the east coast huh? well they’re used to the cold anyway i would think. Great moody shot!
Yea they sometimes go out when its much colder then this! They are very dedicated!
He doesn’t seem to be be that motivated to surf
His posture is actually pretty funny in this foggy surrounding
wow.. i thought he was walking on water! lol..
this guy is really a die-hard surfer if that’s the case.. nice shot!
I’m in agreement with Arjan - judging by his posture, he doesn’t seem that motivated, but I probably wouldn’t be either if it is as cold as I think it is!
I’m looking at the surfer again, and he reminds me of Bigfoot!
spooooooky! love it!!
Looks like a zombie coming out of the water !
Looks like he is coming from nowhere land. An extraordinary shot indeed.
It also gives the illusion that he’s just standing there. Splendid image.
Outstanding! A ghost of a surfer in the fog!
Congratulations!
The surfer looks a little tired, great capture!
A great capture of the surfer in the mist. Very surreal and he almost looks like he’s half asleep with his dropped shoulders.
wow great capt, great pose
Very cool shot…this has great atmosphere!
I like the overall color cast and the vagueness in the image. Nice capture.
Looks to me a dangerous sport in the fog. But very beautifully captured.
There is a movie called The Creature From the Black Lagoon. This reminds me of that
rise of the silver surfer!
