Nina Choi, Photographer, New York

Description

A vertical photograph by photographer Nina Choi captures a lone surfer positioned in front of a massive, curling ocean wave. The crest of the wave breaks powerfully, sending a dense wall of white sea spray and foam across the turquoise and deep blue water. The surrounding water displays textured ripples and swells under a soft, overcast sky with warm yellowish tones near the horizon. The composition emphasizes the vast scale of the natural wave against the small figure of the surfer.
