Lifeguard

On the side of the bay where I live the ocean is sheltered and no strong surf but at Anna Bay and Fingal Bay which is on the open ocean side of the bay the surf is quite strong, so swimmers and surfers are thankful lifeguards are on duty to save people in trouble.

I love this…all the lines, shades, movement, and that splash of yellow.

Lovely scene but it appears that you have lost the lifeguard.

[Pam Knowler]

Lovely capture but where is the lifeguard? 🤪

I can imagine some might be tempted by that surf but not me! Love the lone lifeguard raft….he’s gone AWOL.

[Hazel]

It looks good for beachwalking!

[Casablanca]

Always a reassuring sight, eh?

[Fisher Family]

A lovely shot. I like the way the wind is lifting the spray on the more distant breaking waves.

[Frances Tackaberry]

Great shot! I like the contrast of the motion and colour of the waves vs. the stillness and softness of the sand and surfboard.

[carol white]

Great capture of the breaking waves

[Milanie]

Really well captured

@wakelys @pamknowler @nigelrogers @happypat @casablanca Thanks. It was quite early and they were just setting up. The lifeguards were set up further along the beach and today I will be posting a photo of the flags they put up for swimmers to swim between.
There are two lifeguards on duty actually on the beach and more on higher ground at the Surf Lifesaving Club on lookout for sharks. There are a few sharks around at the moment because it is mullet season. There weren't any swimmers but there were a few surfers.

[Corinne C]

The surfboard seems minuscule beside the ocean. A great composition

[Kathy]

Very visible in case someone needs a lifeguard.

[Pat]

A great shot of this lovely beach. I love the pop of yellow too.

[Shutterbug]

Beautiful capture of all the blues and greens.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Beautiful shot- and the yellow equipment does pop. Hopefully the lifeguard did not need it that day.
