Having fun

by Geoffrey Baker

Gallery: Man & NaturePosted October 17, 201089 views3 comments
Taken while on holiday in North Tenerife.

Why can't we have light like this in Wales :frown:

Sony A350
Sigma 50-500 EX
1/1250th sec
f6.3
ISO 100
500mm
Hand held
Only having the one central cross focussing point and no fancy focus tracking on my camera meant that the surfer was too central so I cropped a bit off the right and very slightly on the top and bottom for composition.

Lovely capture that puts you into the action. The frozen spray is a nice touch here.
