Nice series Armin. I'd probably prefer some of the people cropped or cloned out too although I know the idea is they were showing off to these people. This kind of recreation I view the same way as snow mobilers; they may be lots of fun for them but cause plenty of noise and pollution for others.

Armin, great action shots, Number one is my fav. The head in two could go I think and by the way is that Bond, James Bond? Yvonne

He certainly considered the water splashing in a danger zone to be an impressive act :) The spectator does give a context. -Cat

Thanks, Aam, that was my thought either :o)

I like the woman there, she gives the photo a context, imo of course.

Thanks :o) - not sure about the woman though, because they (two crazy guys) did it for the 'audience' ...and they not only ignored any security zones, but used them. A very large freighter was driving near the pier in the opposite direction creating the waves for them to jump...one nearly hit the ship...


Cheers, Armin

I like this one the best of the three, Armin, but I'd get rid of that woman, who detracts from the energy of the photo. Is that guy out of his mind to be doing such maneuvers so close to other boats? I'm no boater, but even I know about "no wake" zones.
