sailing the ocean

simon bennett


This was taken near Magnetic Island, Australia, on a 32' yacht in July 2002.
In order to get the shot I needed to lie down on the deck while someone held my legs.
My arm was outstretched in to the oncoming waves with the camera just above the water.

Sony DSC-F707. 1/500 F7 47.3mm ISO100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Nice shot of a fun activity.
Really brings back far too few memories of sailing.

Very nicely done. Feel like I'm right there getting some "spray" in my face. Mark J

Very realistic perspective of being on that yacht on the sea...takes the viewer right there. Your efforts paid off. Nice image. MFC
