I liked the detail too.

I was about as far from "surfer girl" as you can get! I could hardly swim in a pool, never mind the ocean!

With a camera in my hand, I am someone else.

It's hard to explain, but the camera and I merge when I'm shooting. It's astonishing.

I agree, it is hard to explain. The entire process of seeing a picture before taking it, considering background, composing/re-composing, double checking focus and clicking is fascinating.
