What is this fellow thinking?

Taken at Jetty beach this afternoon, big swell delighting the crazy grommetts. I wonder what this fellow is thinking as the wave approaches?

"Maybe I should have taken up chess instead of surfing?"

Max is there and after shot? I suppose not as the wave looks big enough to have wiped both of you out.
Nice capture, I would have like to see the surfers feet and the top of the wave on the right, but that is just me being picky :)

I'm not sure how to dry out a lens/camera, but I know my car is salt encrusted.

Camera and lens can be dried out by placing them in the microwave for 2 minutes. :shock:

If anyone on this forum is stupid enough to believe my previous post then please contact me. I'd like to talk to you about some financial investments.

We got our account book wet one day. We came home, put it into the microwave for a minute and it was fine. We were cooking the books....:lol: :lol: :lol:

He's obviously waiting for the sea to spit out the other half of his surfboard. :wink:

"What are you doing up there?"

His mate is being sucked out to sea, bound for Lord Howe island!

On second thoughts, this photo may actually be chronologically before the first, as his friend hurtles toward the rocks at breakneck speed...

Nah... he's probably waiting for the surf to pick up!

Nice captures Max. Wish I was there.

Cheers,
Mick

Max I think the second one is even better, it tells a real story. IMHO it is better than the first
