| Water Skier | January 1, 2009 @ 3:14am | One of my recent images shot last month in Long Beach, CA. Shot with a Nikon D300, Sigma 80-400 (600mm), ISO 200, f8.0, 1/1000 sec. C&C always welcome.
Happy New Year to all,
Gareth Las Vegas and Long Beach

 Go ahead and play with the images. I would ask that when you post them on other sites (such as Flikr, Photobucket, etc.) that you credit my photography. I would do the same for you! Other than that, I'm E Z T D B W. |

Wes, the image was shot in Marine Stadium in Long Beach, CA. It was the site of the 32' Olympic rowing events and is still actively used for local rowing events. The foam you see is from the wake of the boat pulling the skier. I shot it hand-held with a 80-400mm Sigma lens from about 100 feet away.
