SURF RIDE

Posted by Anne (White Rock, Canada) on 16 February 2007 in Sport & Recreation and Portfolio.

The waves at the beach don't look too tough from higher up - but the waves and surf close to the beach are quite hard to get through to more rolling waves one can swim in. I had a tough time just trying to wade back in as my legs were just fighting against the undertow to walk back onto the beach.

Please go ahead and give me constructive criticism where needed! If there is anything that I can change that really needs changing and I can do it in editing - then I will change it and re-post the photo!

@Jen: Thanks Jen! I keep finding a few among the 1200 that I took that I think will work! Had my camera on vivid color - so they are all pretty well saturated. Glad you liked it! :)

@shiqi: thank you shiqi! I was on the beach snapping away for about 2 hours every afternoon, so I got quite a good few captures out of it. Easier than when at home trying to do everything else.

This is great! Hope they didn't flip over. Love the colours, wish winter was over and summer would start here.....

@Yvon: Thank you for visiting - and for your comments. That weather was in Mexico. I was there during December - it seemed very bleak here after I came home. At last we are having milder temperatures and I saw some wild crocuses blooming today - didn't have a camera with me though!
