Re: Aberdeen Surfer

Nice shot
Think the surfer would be a little disappointed with the size of those waves,
Need a storm out in the north sea to build those waves up and the way the weathers going he might just get the prefect storm.

Re: Aberdeen Surfer

Thanks Folks
It was a nice sunny evening - the first one for a while, so the sea was a really nice blue for a change

Re: Aberdeen Surfer

Unfortunately not Stan
I arrived as they were calling it a day.
I liked his yellow top against the nice blue of the sea.
They looked a miserable bunch of bu**ers but seeing as they spent a considerable time in the freezing North Sea its quite understandable
My step-daughter and her boyfriend are keen surfers so I'll see if I can get them to do some surfing things for me.
Heres another shot from the night
