i'm going to pick out the better photos and do hi res edits.
cheers for the comments guys.
it was one of those days where the light and conditions were perfect for photos. so good in fact i stayed dry behind the camera and kept shooting. was my first decent attempt at manual mode also. i overexposed a couple here and there but happy with the results.
definitely looking forward to buying an L Lens. ![]()
Photos look great gestalt, thanks for taking em ![]()
btw, is it possible to get a copy of the photos that you aren't going to publish? I want to have a look and try improve my gybing, I think I need to commit my weight further forward among other things.
^ can do, i have 2 gybe sequences of you. can you pm me your email addy?
lucky as i was going to delete everything not used. ![]()
Ian: looking very cool in that pic ![]()
pretty interesting comparison, stances are very similar, thou I think I'm a bit lower cause I run 28" lines vs haircuts 22? but haircut is way more colour coordinated lol. maybe i should get a black+purple swat and raise the stakes a bit!
i'm suprised i didn't spin out in any gybes, that looks like my tiny little 22cm fin is halfway out of the water. freestyle boards rock!
i'll pass on some more of you also ian, pm me your email addy and i'll get them to you tomorrow.
that sail of yours is certainly bright!
i've tried to tone it down a few times but it just turns pink. ![]()
on a side note, sorry to the people i missed, i tried to get photos of everyone but missed quite a few in the end. some people i got but they are just too blurry.
It's always great to see a big turnout of windsurfers on a spot. I'd love to add to the ranks on the next jaunt. :)
^ hi cubits,
next meet will be wellington point in june. we are aiming for a westerly. you're more than welcome to come and check things out. the more the merrier! ![]()
I have a Weber Q BBQ I could bring to future meets. I know I've not managed to turn up yet, but that will change.
Do you do memberships via CC, or just cash in person ?
^ Hi Ken,
there is only 1 more meet left in the AWA calender year before all memberships will need to be renewed. advice would be to wait until the new memberships kicks off in july that way you will get a full year of value for your $40 ![]()
that said, come along to the next meet and check it out......
yes this is one case where you get more than what you pay for.
i'm keen to drag you along to one of the meets also. i will accept 200mm f2 lenses or any prime over 135mm as payment. [}:)] oh and the bbq would be appreciated.
cheers
JB
oops, forgot the serious stuff.
payment can be made via bank transfer, cheque (to windwanderers inc) or cash.

edit - you can just download it from here, it's the better quality Hi-Def version http://rapidshare.com/files/388396588/Prem_Large_25_FPS_x264_v2.avi
& i managed to finally upload the High-def version to you tube
exposure room is very good. deals with widescreen and doesn't seem to affect quality at all. plus you can enable download to public type of thing.
even converts normal aspect to widescreen.
