 This guy was surf-sailing. Wow - He'd leap 10 feet into the air and was putting on quite a show.

His sail finally dumped into the ocean and he had a time getting it back up - so to speak.

He had to come on shore and disentangle the lines before he went back out.

I took a ton of shots of him on the water, but without a powerful zoom lens it was pretty futile. Here he's on his way back into the water.

I was taking shots of the lighthouse yesterday and saw this kites over the dunes. I thought there were people flying the kites. My friend was walking his dog and after we got back in the car he told me about the surfers. Now I have to go back to take shots of them after seeing this. Great shot. I will try bring a big zoom...
