They stood shivering on the beach

before they took to the water, it is icy cold this time of the year.

Great capture

[Issi Bannerman]

I can only imagine how cold that must be! Great shot though.

[moni kozi]

heheee... icy cold but the call of the water is there. How cold is 'icy' cold? I mean: the view seems so warm... I can't associate waves turquoise and surf with icy cold.

[Desi]

The photo looks quite summer like, but I know it is icy cold now

[KoalaGardens🐨]

yeah wet suit or not, you wouldn't get me in

[Shanne]

great shot - and they are wearing wetsuits, so some protection.

[winghong_ho]

It would be bad to fall into the icy water.

[Valerie Chesney]

Hope they enjoyed their icy surf!

[Mags]

Die hard surfers! LOL! Cool shot!

[Babs]

Wow they are brave.

[Susan Wakely]

Great reflections.

[katy]

I like how your marvelous timing has caught them both in that same pose giving a wonderful sense of motion to the overall effect

[Pam]

The reflections are fantastic.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

I like the colors and the reflections.

[Kate]

Nice reflections

[Milanie]

Even with the wet suits, I'm not sure I could force myself into the water

[Heather]

Beautiful blues with the white surf. A lovely shot, Diana! Fav

[Jane Pittenger]

[Rick]

Great capture. It just sounds so funny to hear about cold temps there and we are burning up over here. :-)
