Boscombe Surf Reef construction (latest image)...


The construction of the artifical surf reef off Boscombe beach, Dorset, continues while the fine weather persists. The image, shot today, shows the barge anchored at the end of the pipeline (outlined by the marker buoys) being used to pump sand into the geotextile bags. The reef is esentially a ramp that will affect the way waves will break, doubling the number of good surf days per year.

Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 lens. 1/200 sec at f/8. ISO 100.
