Langstone by 30pics4jackiesdiamond

Langstone

Paddle boarded about 5 miles today, against tide and wind. Stopped to take quick shot of this iconic view of Royal Oak and Langstone Mill.

Composition could be better but tide taking me away quite quickly and I was sat on the board in deep water. I've already written off one phone this season!

My day to upload to TheDarkroom today. It's a bit dark this week.

Great view! Brave thing to do, I would fall into the water after one minute I fear.....

5 miles! Looks like a great place to paddle board. I would be afraid to take my camera (phone) into the water.

That's a lovely image - and taken from a paddle board - during a 5 mile paddle! You are a very dedicated photographer! :)

Impressed, 5 miles and creating art while on a paddle board- you rock!

I like your POV and admire your courage to take a camera of any sort on a self propelled watercraft.

Lovely image Jackie - maybe you should invest in a little waterproof point and shoot. It could be cheaper than writing off another phone !

@merrelyn we have a go pro in a waterproof case but if wasn't charged
@randystreat I made sure I was safe
@joysabin well I didn't rock too much
@robz I didn't plan to take a photo, but if was so perfect I had to

@koalagardens the mill is often painted and photographed for souvenirs and calenders
@salza if I'd planned the trip it wouldn't have happened, as I know I don't have the stamina!! Oops
@casablanca cropped to letterbox, phone has a huge wide angle pov
@joansmor we chatted non stop as we paddled and were shocked at the distance we covered
@shutterbug49 I don't take a camera, and phone is double wrapped ( now! As single wrapped one died when it wasn't actually waterproofed!)
@ludwigsdiana supping is amazing for the core
@jacqbb it gets easier every time I go!! Must now learn how to turn corners though
