You aren't on one of those things, with your camera, over the water, are you?

Otherwise, nice shots.

That looks like it was fun. I didn't know that they could take off from such a low point and gain altitude like that. Nice close-up captures.

Very kewl Ben


I really like the first one with both guy's feet off the ground. I think most of these could have benefitted from going a bit wider. Still, they look very nice. Like you, I'd shoot these guys all day. I wouldn't go up in one unless my kid's lives depended on it (notice I left out my wife's and my own lives....lol)

Thanks for sharing,
Steve

Hi Susan
Yes I might have to try that. It's a low bluff with nice soft crash sand and water What's the worse that could happen. :lol
