2018 Nikon Surf Photo of the Year

in #photography7 years ago

Each year, Nikon and Surfing Australia team up to showcase the most outstanding images captured by Australian surf photographers for the year.

They short listed 20 "surf-themed" images and judged them on the following criteria...

  • Innovation and creativity
  • Dramatic affect and sensory impact
  • Uniqueness
  • Composition of the photo

As you can see from the shortlist images below, choosing a winner would be a difficult task but Trent Mitchell won this years award for his image Unbound.
