Not a hair out of place! That's serious adrenalin creating activity but I have the boat for you here http://excitor.co.nz/home.html

Well done Teela! Great shots for your first time out there! I'd be happy with those.

Like the ones where you've got the hand signals from the Navigators!

Thank you Brett. I still dont have enough confidence in my own abilities, but I am happy with the results.

Next time, when you wave, could you try using more than just the one finger though?

Au contraire, that reminds me of a great quote from Mika Hakkinen.

Journalist: You were looking particularly good out there this morning Mika.
Mika: That's because I was wearing a helmet.

:lol:

great shots Teela

is it easy to get close enough to the action or are you kept back a fair way?

For safety reasons I had to stay behind the fencing, but I used my 70-300mm lens.

A 300 will get you close enough from behind the fence... but if you have longer you might want to think about bringing it also...

and who say's that size doesnt matter..
