Surfing photos

We took a disposable camera out to Croyde and took some snaps in the surf. Now, if you were there you'll know that the waves were big, the weather nice, and the surfing a display of such amazing skill that the Jesus Surfers stopped to watch. But somehow, the photos don't quite show the same thing... here's the Flickr photostream.

Not quite the Mavericks!

Sweet....I think you get the best classic surf photo in "surf 5" where you're just about to take off on a wave.

And I wish I knew whose leg it was behind the foam - half a second earlier and that one would have been a classic :-)

I'd love to claim credit but I think it was Xeeny who did most of the snapping? (Don't tell but I missed that wave, too!)

That all looks very damp. Is that your red van in the icon?

Yup :)
