smooth move dude

Technically he's not "on" my beach so I can't kill or maim him. I did however spend some time scowling meaningfully at him as he slid by at a safe distance. I believe that because I'm very brave when it comes to this sort of transgression that I may have even muttered under my breath at one point.
I also seem to have found a level of colour that I'm comfortable with. Muted and dull.
Wonderful color or bot

Not not bot

You appear to have frightened him, judging by the splashing and active leg movements. ;) "Run away!" Your camera has some really good focus and clarity going on here. I like the muted color, too.

Great minimalism.

@epcello Thanks very much :)
@rosiekerr I hope he's terrified ;)
@jgpittenger not not bot it is ;)

Sounds like a fair compromise, but don't get too soft. Love the diagonals in his attachment to the whatever it is.

Great image. You should come back to the UK we do muted colour very well at this time of year ;)

@rjb71 I remember it well...that and the ungodly temperatures ;)
@golftragic Thanks awfully...I'm not sure what the technical terms is. Sail chute?

Poor fellow probably couldn't come back to terra firma until you had departed the beach. A great action image. Those guys are pretty clever.
February 6th, 2018  
@graemestevens Your guess is as good as mine.
February 6th, 2018  
@dide They are very clever, and quite buff. Shouldn't be allowed.
February 6th, 2018  
Wonderful pic of this very scared guy (I am sure).
February 6th, 2018  
Nice :)

Not my cup of tea sport wise but a great capture !

@silverhorn No sport is my cup of tea sport wise...I like wine.
@hermann Thank you very much :)
@joansmor He was enjoying himself far too much to be scared ;)

Wonderful action shot Graeme...Fav.

could it be your job , selling colour you don;t want to be seeing it in your pictures as too,
February 6th, 2018  
looks like he's wave walking
February 6th, 2018  
Great shot though, he looks as if he's lost his board...
February 6th, 2018  
@graemestevens Me too .. quite fond of a good Moscato
February 6th, 2018  
Has he fallen off the board in response to your scowl? I don't understand these sports one bit. I do like your muted colours though.
February 6th, 2018  
Thumbs UP👍👍👍 fav

Love the minimalism and the processing.
February 7th, 2018  
Maybe he's trying to be abducted by aliens?
February 7th, 2018  
@joysabin We live in hope, if for nothing more than the photo opportunity ;)
@888rachel Thanks very much :)
@joemuli Thank you kindly :)
@helenhall I don't get it either...whats wrong with sitting on the coach with a wine?
@joannakate He does seem to have parted company with a vital piece of equipment...
@blueberry1222 Maybe its jesus in a wetsuit...
@jack4john It's creeping in to every aspect of my life. Help me.
@tonygig Thanks very much :)

Love the composition, and the colors =) Nicely done.
February 7th, 2018  
@sunshinepix Thanks very much - get me, taking normal photos ;)
February 7th, 2018  
It's bad enough that they come to your beach but when they bring toys with them, that really pisses me off
February 7th, 2018  
@adayinmallacoota It's gone beyond a joke to be honest. I feel a strongly worded letter coming on.
February 7th, 2018  
Very bold composition... but I think you got away with it. BtW, it was originally called parasurfing but with the introduction of an inflatable 'wing' to replace the parachute it's now called kite-surfing or kiteboarding.
February 7th, 2018  
@vignouse Thanks very much - personally I think it should just be called "stupidity"...there's things in there that want to eat people ;)
February 7th, 2018  
love the dull and muted
February 7th, 2018  
@overalvandaan Thank you very much :)

Always wondered how these guys don't get their arms pulled off. Looks such hard work, though I imagine it's a lot of fun - providing your arms don't get pulled off that is! Great action shot. The kite (is that what it's called?) really stands out against such a dull sky?
February 8th, 2018  
@paul10 Thanks - it's a mystery to me why anyone would actually go in tot he sea...there's thing in there what eat people.
February 8th, 2018  
@graemestevens And here's me all worried about my arms being pulled off :D
February 8th, 2018  
Great shot!
