The waves were really crashing on Pillar Rock here at Morro Rock! One of 70 shots from the 17th Annual Big, Bad, and Ugly Surf Event by the Estero Bay Surf Club - photos by Mike Baird, bairdphotos.com - Shot RAW w/ a Canon 5D w/ 600 mm f/4.0 IS lens with polarizer and a strong tripod (1/1600 or 1/1250 shutter priority). Unlike many of my other surf shots, here I largely tried to capture close-up shots of many of the participants regardless of the technical aspects of the ride. Thanks to Happy Dog and Joe for making me feel welcome to their event. All photos are posted in full-resolution but cropped. Feel free to use these photos for your personal enjoyment in any way you like. I always appreciate hearing from people who find their photos to their liking - email mike at mikebaird dot com Surfers and friends of surfers – please add a Note (see ADD NOTE button above) annotation to this photo and or add a comment below indicating the identity of the individual(s) in this image.

Flickriver is a web-based image viewer that provides a new way to explore and view Flickr photos.
It's a personal project of Alex Sirota (aka iosart).
Flickriver enhances your photo browsing experience in several ways:
Answer: Flickriver is simply an alternative Flickr viewer, and as such it displays all public Flickr photos using the official Flickr API - similarly to hundreds of other alternative Flickr viewers and tools. Flickriver doesn't host any photos and doesn't reference any photos specifically - it is merely a viewer that reflects whatever Flickr provides it when you ask it to.
Flickr have specific guidelines for viewers such as Flickriver and other applications that use their API - for example, once a viewer displays a public Flickr photo, the photo must link back to its original Flickr page - so there can be no misunderstanding about the image origin, author or copyright. As you can see, Flickriver is absolutely compliant with this guideline. You can read the official Flickr FAQ about this here and here.
Flickr allows you to opt out from third party services having access to your photos using Flickr API. You can opt out on this page by selecting both:
Note: Flickriver uses the Flickr API but is not endorsed or certified by Flickr.
