Beating Upwind Photo

Photographer’s Note

There are times when there are whitecaps on the waves, and going anywhere in a small craft is a wee bit of a challenge; at least if you are in the boat...

This fisherman must have been some hungry to venture out. Perhaps he was looking for [snow]crab.

This photo is dedicated to Steven John H. who loves the ocean!

BEEN in a boat like that, and been in a wind like that!!! I so appreciate the choppy conditions, and know what a WILD ride that can be!!!
Photo surely showed the swells as well as the whitecaps in a nice contrast!!
Nice shot!! I like the ACTION that is displayed!!

Nice capture of the spray thrown up by the bow of this boat.
The guys were out testing their new boat and outborad motor.
They were having a great time while during their testing.

Cheers:)
