Great atmosphere in subdued but lovely light in this well composed image Keith, by the wash he appears to be making good progress across the harbour and I see no reason why
I could not stand on that board, providing it wasn't in the water ;-))

Kind words as always Roger.........for which you have my thank and appreciation.

I also like your adventurous spirit :-))

Er genießt wohl auch gerne diese Ruhe am Wasser lieber Keith,nicht zu denken,wenn man da reinfällt,auch nichts für mich,grinssss,schön hast du diesen Moment des Padlers fotografiert :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))

Thanks Güni.........glad you like this one and thanks for stopping by. Enjoy the rest of your day.

He seems to be posing for you;-) A beautifully composed photo, the soft blue and grey colours add to it.

Ha, ha.........I think he was more likely concentrating on not falling in the water!

I'm pleased you like my shot Gudrun.........thanks very much.

Yes but possibly he's an expert, Keith
Wonderful and serene atmosphere!

Let's hope so! Glad you like the image Judite and thanks for your lovely comment.

brrrr
must be very motivated this man........

That's one way of putting it............I'd have said crazy :-))

That always looks good Keith. I would not mind giving this a go in warm weather perhaps.

Thanks for sharing with our UK Landscape Photography Group , Herb

Thanks Herb............appreciated.

It's certainly becoming a popular pastime...........I see lots of them about, but usually in the summer months.

Looks so quiet and peaceful.

This is something I wish had been around when I was younger and able to stand without falling!!!! It looks a fantastic hobby, but as all been said above - it's rather daft thing to do, this time of year and not even wearing proper clothes. I do hope he didn't fall in, otherwise it would have meant some poor lifeboat men had to get out and save him!!!!

Whatever people say about this I do wonder about it being yet another selfish pursuit, like the people who swim in reservoirs and paddleboard in places like Brotherswater having walked past the no Paddleboards sign and them head off towards swans on the water.
