Hello Friends,
Went for a quick splash after seeing a clean glassy peak at Northy this morning. Sap job! Turned out it was a 1 in 50 clean one. Pretty much all the rest were shutdowns, some of which as I discovered on my first take off were murderous in their intent! Plus the water coming out of the lagoon was making for lots of chilly spots in the lineup.
Just quietly I’m liking the look of the models for Wednesday morning. East to NE swell spots could offer some fun options if the predictions turn out to be right. And we’re set to have offshores with it. It’s not looking like being particularly big, but exposed places could be producing the odd shoulder to head high set if we get lucky.
After I got out, I wandered down to look at Longy and discovered there was quite a crew messing about in the occasional peaks (lots of shutdowns there too) just north of no man’s. Set up the camera and the mighty 650 to do a bit of shooting. The shots are currently uploading to my galleries, so I should have a link up soon.
FWIW, I’m still puzzling over how to let people know what I’m doing when I’m shooting. As I would, they probably assume I’m taking pictures of mates or somebody famous. In fact, I’m trying to get shots of anybody who gets a reasonable wave or even a decent section. So, if you see me on the beach pointing a camera in your direction, there’s an excellent chance I’m taking your picture!
