That might be his own personal style, but the amount of white in the pics is bugging me.

empire88, It's his post production he does to it.

Ask him if it's cool if I re-edit one or two of the pics....

If you darken the pics you're gonna lose detail in the rider.

The backgrounds are all overexposed because the clouds are reflecting off the water and the riders are wearing a lot of black. The only way to avoid this is to leave the camera in the bag and go join the fun. You can do all you want in post, but you can't polish a turd.

scott a, well we didn't have a wet suit his size. So he was stuck taking pics. The reason the pics are "blown out" is because it was very cloudy and rainy, and gray. Very bad light to shoot in. But, that's what I'm stuck with here in Oregon most the time of the year. It's my turd!
