This is the second image of a series, consisting of 7 images, called 'Kite-Surfing' . Kite-surfing is a rather dangerous sport. In the province of Zeeland, a kite surfer lost his life and one was serious injured last week.

On this image you can see a kite-surfer in action close to the beach.

Images are taken on Sunday, May 10th 2009, at a beach on the northern part of the peninsula Walcheren, Zeeland, The Netherlands.

Hope you'll like this series. Thank you in advance for your comment.

PS: In the distance the Eastern Scheldt Storm Surge Barrier can be seen.

This is a beautiful action shot, Cornelius - "super cool" as my granddaughter would say. From the wake one can see with what force the surf board with its "load" is being towed.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

A good series you have started C. The presentation is really good and the colors are perfect. It looks like he has caught a good wind. I will look forward to more of this series.
Good health to you and yours.

Fantastic scene and shot of the kite surfer. Looks like fun, but I think I will leave all that fun for the younger generation. LOL.

I love the way this is cropped with the surfer drawing our eyes to the lower left and the sail drawing them back to the upper right. It's an amazing shot, Cornelius and I can understand how it is dangerous. It must be expensive to lose those sails too. Fascinating image, Cornelius. I have to go see the first one. I am way behind in commenting. :0)

I like the wave action. The shot seems a might dark to me. Thank you for explaining the background as I was really curious about all that back there.
