Splash! I got wet again but not too badly!

Splash! I got wet again but not too badly!
Tubby's Head (where else?), St Agnes, Cornwall.
This wave WAS unexpected. it seemed two waves approached from different angles and started to climb up one above the other. Never seen anything quite like it before and I suppose it could have been worse, but I always secure myself firmly to a rock and make sure I can tuck my camera away from the worst.

Such great focus Andy, all that spray forever caught in midair. I always chicken out when faced with waves - put on a longer lens and stand well back - you're a brave man ...

Andy Rodker club has replied to MaggsMep club
Kind words, Maggie. But, really - I was there anyway and was going to get wet so I just pressed the shutter and tucked the camera under my shirt pronto!

I'm impressed you had the presence of mind to press the shutter before that wave hit you Andy. An excellent shot..!!

It was obviously emotional for you...............it brought on a wave of nostalgia :-))

I used to take more risks than I would today, Roger (Oh! The impetuosity of youth!!! - I was all of 54!).
Thank you!
