Photographer’s Note

another kite surfer in the Red Sea gulf of Eilat.
It was a very windy day and the pros were having a great time with their kites. Some non-pros were drifted by the winds with no way to control their direction, towards the Jordanian coast on the other side of the bay (or even worse - to the Saudi coast).
I was really worried about them, so I called the coast guard boats to help them, while I'm holding the cellphone in one hand, and the camera on the other.
I believe that the coast guard boats collected them all..

Yitzhak the savior...

Good action moment caught at just the right time. This guy is really a pro, it's not easy to do tricks like this one. A fun series.

Strong action shot, Yitzhak.
I'm glad to have more time, so that I don't miss your work now, old friend from TE...
I hope for them that the rescue action was succesfull

Fantastic sporting action shot, perfect timing. Maybe a touch OE, but what the heck with this one.

A fine action shot with a great DOF - The grey and blue background gives us a fine image - thanks Yitzhak - funny becourse I actually "hunted" a shot like this today.
