A couple from the weekend Sail Race

I learned that taking pics of the race is one thing. Being a crew member and taking pics is another animal. Very little time to do very much.

1. Oh - I like!!! Marvelous color and action.

Both shots make me want to be there and have the wind around my ears. Good shots for a busy guy :)

3. It was crazy. Downwind the only pics I could take were..

quickies with my iphone. When we were on a long reach I had a little time to run down below and grab my nikon, take a pic or two and put the camera back then up to the rail to sit on the high side.
