Thanks to Rooboy I now have a 70-300.
This makes taking shots of the surfers while staying dry a bit easier.

Nice captures Colin.

The guy on the malibu was certainly close to shore!

Cheers, Mick :) :) :)

Nice clear pictures although they don't do a lot for me. Perhaps the first one would have been better if there was more space in front of the surfer and board rather than behind. A tighter crop on the second one might work better.

Now you just need an even longer lens so you can photograph surfers from home. :roll:

The first one is just begging for a shark to be photoshopped on the left-hand side. :)

Thanks for the comments guys.
Like you ATJ I would get more out of a microscope attachment than a telescopic lens.
