I went to the beach with my cameras to photograph the surfers a couple days ago. It was my first time out there since June. The forecast was for SW winds at 18 mph all day. I got there at 1600 and the wind was a bit slower than predicted, but there were plenty of surfers, including a few new faces, like Holly, the young woman wearing orange shorts.
I stayed out for close to two hours feeling the wind and watching the show. It was good to be back.
