On a short trip to the California coast, I stumbled upon a couple of Surfbirds on a jetty stretching out into the ocean. I scrambled down to the edge of the jetty to get eye-level with the birds. I wanted to catch the backlit sea spray. I waited for a wave to approach and fired off as many shots as I could before having to dodge the splash. In the few attempts I got I was delighted to get at least one that turned out.
