Location	City - Sanibel Island State - NOT SO SUNNY FLORIDA Country - United States
About	On a recent trip to Ft Myers Florida, I ventured over to Sanibel Island for a little seashore exploration. While there a front started to blow thru and it happened to be from Hurricane Rita. I was near the Sanibel Lighthouse when I spotted windsurfers hauling thru the surf at incredible speeds. It was almost too good to be true, this was just the image that I had imagined, hard weather and super fast windsurfing. My photo shoot was cut short not because of low batteries or no more memory card but because of increased wind speed and heavy downpours of rain. Luckily I had a shirt with me that I removed and covered up my camera for the run back to the protection of my car. I hope that you enjoy!

Nice and Original Shot, Berry...Boy, that dude's getting some air-time!!!Feeling the sheer strength of a Hurricane is invigorating and exciting...Somehting I have experienced with Opal in '95...Yea, I bellied up and bought the D70S...It's a nice piece of machinery, though expensive for my pauper lifestyle!!! Cheers my Friend, Greg

I did crop some, however had I cropped anymore I would have lost important elements here like the sky.

An amazing picture, great lighting. The windsurfer doesn't show up well on the thumbnail. It would be tempting to crop more closely, though the broad view adds to that feel of how small we all are.
