Photographer’s Note
I was on this white sandy beach watching the sun going down. But today, with the developing haze in the west coast of Sabah, the sun goes down with just a whimper and the sky was lacklustre and desaturated.
Sunset would not be as concerting as other sunsets I had taken before. Or is it?
There in the frothing waist high waves, crashing on the white sand, are two lovely wonderful Caucasian children. A sister and her brother rolling and pitching with the waves. Ah yes...young waveriders!
It might not be the big storey high waves with green tubes and high crests barreling to shore but, poors can't be choosers. You just have to make do with what you have and what's coming to you.
The G10 hasn't seen much actions lately and it would be fun to poison others what the little choo choo train of a Decisive Moment Camera could do. Maybe, I could get a spot on SI with these sunset waveriders.
Wade offshore to meet up the waist high waves and getting to know better the two young riders...

Hello Rabani,
Great action. Clean clear sharp shot.
You caught this at the perfect time.
I love the expression (and hands) on the young lady.
The different water actions are incredible - the young lady has a bonnet of water
around her head and her brother has caused an explosion :))
Great colours - well done.
Regards,
Graham.
