Robert Quirk – Dec 10-11 Todos Santos Surf Photos

December 11 turned out to be a great surfing day. Skies were clear and the swell was still pumping although a bit less savage than the day before. The water was close to glassy at times. There were a LOT of bodies in the water and the expected frustrations did ensue. So it goes…

These 4 shots are of my friend Robert Quirk whose son Justin Quirk is a pro level surfer. Robert isn’t so bad either.

You can easily see the difference in the light and color on the two days. For those who care on Dec 11 I used the same Canon 5d MkII and 300 f2.8 lens but shot mostly with the 2x tele-extender although for a while I tried stacking the 1.4x and 2x. Needless to say, focusing was slower and less accurate with the 2x and with the stacked set and image clarity also suffered. More than good enough for the web though.
