saw this at Kianga Beach and thought it was worth a few frames of the waves crashing on the rocks and my model walked into frame on que..... I was on a bridge about 2 meters above the water...

Did you get any with the person in focus. I'm not sure, but I think that might make the image work better (for me).

I like the first one, the wave looks great, second doesn't work for me, but i think it would also look better if the person was a bit more in focus, because my eye goes there the most.

The waves look great, especially the first one, but the out of focus person is a distraction and adds little. Either lose the person, or get them in focus.

I looked at this when you first posted it but refrained from commenting since I figured it was there as a curiosity more than anything else. To be honest we both know you can do much better than this. The person is so dominant in the frame that it's impossible not to notice they are out of focus and therein lies the problem with both shots. It belongs in your reject bin. :wink:
