surf's up

A shot from our walk at Lee on Solent at the weekend. The wind was strong and bitterly cold.

That's the Isle of Wight in the background.

@candia

Candia, thanks! I'm totally incapable of doing that ANYtime!!!

FAB wind surging shot. Wind surfing is a pretty big deal in Oregon..in the Columbia Gorge. Lots of wind there. Love seeing them in action. Love how you caught the light and color on the sail and the silhouette of the surfer. FAV

You can see the IOW so clearly....didn't realise it was so visible! I have never been down to your side of the country Hazel. Love that sail!

The light and movement on the sea is lovely. What a nice action shot... it looks cold, though!

[Rosan]

Beautiful action shot! I love the glint of color on the water through the sail.

[Penelope Ann]

Great motion shot! Is that tanker in safe harbour

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

Makes me more appreciating of my warm bungalow, lovely capture though.

Like the B&W feel with the splash of colour in the sail.

[Carol]

Excellent shot! I love the contrast between the cold, gloomy scene and the bright sail.

[Darlene]

What a great shot. I love the colors of this sail. Are you going back and forth between your Panasonic and Sony? How do you like the Sony? FAV

[Kerry McCarthy]

Wonderful shot. Fav

[Sandy]

Great action shot and angle, Hazel. Can't imagine being out in the water in that weather though. He must be a very hardy soul.

[Hazel]

@darsphotos

Darlene I don't have a zoom lens for the Sony and not sure whether to buy one? The Panasonic has the best zoom of my cameras (I also have a small Lumix and an X20 and use them both too!) so is the best for this situation.

[Henrietta]

I love the silver sea!

[Nicole]

fabulous capture! like the effect of the sun on the water!

[Frank Hymus]

Most effective with the figure in silhouette, but the sail with color and detail.
