If I went in for fanciful titles, I'd call this "the cricket and the wave" - the leaf looks a bit like a wave crest. I've not noticed this species before, the common name is Handsome Trig.

Nice action shot, looks like he is making a real effort to get over the wave. Very good detail and background as well.

Great shot Tom! I like the composition. I might be tempted to call it "The Surfer".
