Kanika Mediratta, Taking A Break (September theme: Water)

This particular photo was shot in Bondi after a beautiful sunrise and I stuck around to catch a few surfers and waves breaking. I saw this surfer taking a break while he waited for the next wave and loved the simplicity of that moment. I used the Motion Blur effect in Photoshop for the water and cropped the image slightly to really draw the viewer's eye to this moment.
