George

Columbia River, Oregon

It Was Not To Be
“Wild Child,” a Hunter 42, charges after us, but forgets that VMG (velocity made good) beats boat speed. Not being able to point as high as us, he slowly gets smaller.

Olympus C-2100UZ
1/800s f/8.0 at 70.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

From the picture, it seems like he wants you to get out of the way... Very nice shot!

Nice picture George! I love the guy in the shades looking right into the camera. It really adds to the sense of being chased.
My only comment is you could have rotated the picture a bit to straighten out the horizon (just a pet peeve of mine).

I really like the perspective from which you caught this one.

Very nice shot. I like the view of the boat heading towards you. Great exposure - no highlights are blown out and there is still crisp detail in the water.
