Photographer Brian Bielmann captures the moment surfers wipe out, America - 13 Jan 2011

Wipeout: From Rad To Bad
These dramatic photographs capture the moment the world's best surfers are caught out by some of the world's biggest waves.
The extraordinary images reveal the sport's most dangerous moments - when surfers push the limit too far and are thrown from 30 foot high breakers.
Photographer Brian Bielmann travels to the world's most exotic beaches snapping the moments when surfers crash - known as wiping out.
The 53-year-old New Yorker, who settled in Hawaii, has spent more than 30 years tackling the world's roughest surf, camera in hand.
Brian used to surf himself but had to give up the sport as a 21-year-old following a near death experience when he was hurled against a reef after a 'crash'.
Since then he has visited far flung corners of the earth to photograph the sport's elite, searching for the perfect wave and the perfect wipeout.
He said: "It's funny; I get really excited when I shoot a really good wipeout.
"But then afterwards there is a real moment of guilt when I realise I was more concerned about getting a great image.
"Usually, the guys are ok and I heave a huge sigh of relief. Afterwards, they love to see the shots of themselves wiping out, the bigger the better."
Brian's most dramatic wipeout shot was taken at the Eddie Aikau Quiksilver contest in Hawaii.
It shows his friend 'Flea' taking a massive tumble while trying to ride a huge wave.
He said: "Flea was really going for it, as there was fifty thousand dollars prize money on offer!
"It was the worst wipeout I had seen in 30 years".
Brian uses specialist underwater housing for his cameras when bobbing about in the strong currents.
"Some of my shots are taken while I'm trying to survive these huge waves myself," he said.

Wipeout: From Rad To Bad
These dramatic photographs capture the moment the world's best surfers are caught out by some of the world's biggest waves.
The extraordinary images reveal the sport's most dangerous moments - when surfers push the limit too far and are thrown from 30 foot high breakers.
Photographer Brian Bielmann travels to the world's most exotic beaches snapping the moments when surfers crash - known as wiping out.
The 53-year-old New Yorker, who settled in Hawaii, has spent more than 30 years tackling the world's roughest surf, camera in hand.
Brian used to surf himself but had to give up the sport as a 21-year-old following a near death experience when he was hurled against a reef after a 'crash'.
Since then he has visited far flung corners of the earth to photograph the sport's elite, searching for the perfect wave and the perfect wipeout.
He said: "It's funny; I get really excited when I shoot a really good wipeout.
"But then afterwards there is a real moment of guilt when I realise I was more concerned about getting a great image.
"Usually, the guys are ok and I heave a huge sigh of relief. Afterwards, they love to see the shots of themselves wiping out, the bigger the better."
Brian's most dramatic wipeout shot was taken at the Eddie Aikau Quiksilver contest in Hawaii.
It shows his friend 'Flea' taking a massive tumble while trying to ride a huge wave.
He said: "Flea was really going for it, as there was fifty thousand dollars prize money on offer!
"It was the worst wipeout I had seen in 30 years".
Brian uses specialist underwater housing for his cameras when bobbing about in the strong currents.
"Some of my shots are taken while I'm trying to survive these huge waves myself," he said.
"You have to keep your wits about you at a...

The Happiest Swimmer in the Ocean
**MANDATORY CREDIT GARY FLORIN/REX FEATURES**
THE HAPPIEST SWIMMER IN THE OCEAN
The credit has crunched, the weather is cold, but nothing can wipe the smile from this little fellow's face.
Called a Piglet Squid, this sea creature always looks cheerful thanks to what appears to be a huge grin.
About the size of a small orange, the squid - Latin name Helicocranchia pfefferi - can commonly be found in deepwater (greater than 100m) in most of the world's oceans.
But this cute chap is more distinctive than most thanks to pigments which dot its skin - making it seem like the happiest swimmer in the ocean.
Scientists gave it the name thanks to its tuft of eight arms and two tentacles on its 'head', as well as its habit of looking porky when inflated with water.
Its body is almost totally clear revealing a dark mass that is the internal organs and barely visible, feather-like gills. It also has a large light producing organ (photophore) beneath each of its eyes.
The picture was taken by California's Cabrillo Marine Aquarium. CMA Director Mike Schaadt says: "Our photographer Gary Florin took a marvellous picture of this rarely seen yet fairly common member of the deep sea plankton community. The angle Gary took the picture at makes it look comical."
