New years dive 2007

Every year January 1st 100.000 Dutch people in whole the country dive into the sea.
This year the temperature of the air and the water where fine 10◦C (50◦F) but there was a very strong wind and high waves.
Therefore the biggest dive in Scheveningen was cancelled.
I went to a smaller one in "het Westland" for this reportage.

Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel
1/1250s f/7.1 at 135.0mm iso400 full exif
