Wipe-out...


The first bit of decent light since the start of the new year, and I'm out with a long lens and heading for Southbourne beach, Dorset. It is here that the waves, no doubt increased in size by the southerly wind, are somewhat larger than those to be found on the purpose-built surf reef two miles or so to the West.

Consequently, it had attracted a small number of committed surfers, despite the cold, and it is one such participant - photographed here - experiencing a wipe-out.
