Thanks!

What a great picture. What type of lens were you using with this shot? This is a hard type shot to get, and you got it! :-)
Paul Manning replied
Thanks, I get these with a canon powershot G9 in a waterhousing. It’s a great a little point and shoot – has good creative controls but only a single shot, so get one shot per wave, can’t hold the shutter down! Lots of hours in the water! cheers, paul

Wonderful shot Paul ! only one of two ? what a bummer huh? well at least you came away with this beauty :)
Paul Manning replied
Thanks! it looked so promising when we went out! I did get the other wave but the wall in the background was all out of whack and irritated me so it didn’t make the cut! have a great 2009! cheers, paul
