A few seconds later my camera seemed to float just above the swirling surf as the tripod went for a late night swim!
I am only just starting to get brave enough to expose my gear to the elements but a swim in salt water is a little more serious that rain. It was cold and wet and rainy and blustery but I was rugged up to the hilt and just love being down on that windswept beach.
I had 10 minutes, took 6 shots and this is one of them.
