The Surfer
by Assaf Gavra
Surfing waves is one of the ancient sports.
Photo surfers for me is very green cause this sport involved the love to the sea only with the surfer ... no motor no fuel just your body and the surfboard , in the last few years surfing is turning to green products such wood and cotton .
In this photo I tried to transfer the love of the surfer to the sea mixed with thew power of this sport , using the GoPro cam which had glued to the surf board I succeeded to capture few hundred images from all of them this one deliver the best :)
Equipment: Go Pro HD Wide

Nature is one of my biggest passions since I remember my self...
I got into photography in 2010 when I noticed that I had a talent, and so did people around me.
Before that, I only got the camera to snap shots of family and friends. Then I started taking different kind of photos.
Since that time my photographs were published in national and international photography magazines, advertising campaigns, journals, brochures,
And of course,internet. sites.
