Merry Christmas!
This was a quick cold session at Zuma Beach on the drive north to Ventura on Christmas Eve. It was rainy and stormy the whole drive up, when we took the coast highway up through Malibu we could see perfect little south windswell bumps with a cold offshore wind blowing. Zuma was 1-2 feet and perfect shape, too small for surfing, but nice conditions to go for a quick bodysurf and take some shots. There was not much light out, so I was playing around with slower shutter speeds and got this shot below that I liked. Rather than freezing the action quickly, this allows the lip and wave to blur across the frame and create a different look.
