Diving off the bridge

The other day, when it was so hot, these guys were diving off the bridge at Albert Town (near Wanaka) into the Clutha River. They are braver than I am!!

This is a fabulous series of shots

Great capture and collage.. bet the water was pretty cold though

[Julie Ells]

Great series of shots.I want to jump in.

[Maggiemae]

That river is deep and fast - they would have to be good swimmers! Brilliant capture in mid air!

[Marnie]

The follies of youth! But this is a lovely set of shots Dianne. Do you know the kids? They're certainly very game.

[Dianne]

@maggiemae Yes - it was really deep where they dived, but not far from the riverbank, so they could swim back easily. @swilde @julzmaioro yep - water was cold - my sister can vouch for that…. @crawest @golftragic these two were adults. The other day, we watched a family of four jumping in - so cool to see the parents encouraging the kids to 'risk take' with supervision.

Fantastic series of action shots! Perfect that it ends with a splash.

Thanks very much for the shared comment on my X-acto Knife photo.

@dide You're absolutely right with that approach Dianne. There's far too much bubble-wrapping of kids these days. It's well-intentioned, but the consequences are often pretty disastrous.

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

Cool action sequence, great timing!
