Surfer

About a week ago I posted a photo of a young man walking along the beach carrying his surfboard. A couple of people wondered if he was a good surfer, band I have to confess that I did not observe him as he was surfing. I took the photo during the late afternoon, so it was hard to squint and look directly into the sun to try to watch individual surfers.

But, since people are evidently interested in checking out surfing form, here is a photo I took a while back of a surfer on Tamarindo beach. I took this photo with my little waterproof camera, which has broken, but it did allow me to get out into the waves with the surfers for photos like these.

The fishing village of Burano, Italy, near the mouth of the Venetian lagoon is the subject of our photos onViva la Voyage, our travel photo site.

  6. I always go for appearances, they look good so they are good! Like this one. You took this picture with a broken camera? Only a pro can do that.... It means you're good, really good.
