Lacey Gallery 1st ten photos.  Today was a beautiful day at J-Ave!  The waves were Chest high, some smaller, some bigger, with unexpected offshore winds past 8 AM, and unexpected sunshine.  The next swell moving in was supposed to throw 20 mph NE winds by 8 or 9 AM, but our Awesome Creator (God 🙂  gave us an extended window of the whole neighborhood out in the water at some time or another.  And our typical Boardwalk Commentators put in a little overtime, just to make sure everything went well, and so that all of those participants that shredded at least one wave, were commended at least once 🙂

The first sequence is of Lacey (if misspelled i change it in the title later:) ), which which was done in 2 part, because as she dropped into one of the waves of the day, I was shooting right into the Sun,  the camera had to time-out for 2 seconds after 6 shots, and then I

managed to pull 3 or 4 more shots on the same ride, but out of direct sun, and as she was getting closer to shore.  It ended up being like 10 shots from the same wave, and if you look at the longboard on the sand, and how it re-positioned with the guy next to it,  the span of her ride had to be close to 100 yards give or take.  Just an awesome ride by Lacey, her style of takeoff, form and grace on that one!

The next sequence is of Chad, on another of the bombs of the day, and trying to maintain a stance of modesty from his growing talent, he kept his re-entries in this chest to head high wave slightly conservative, so as not to frustrate others who are still learning to Surf 🙂

Sunday Surf; expect big overhead chop with 15 to 25 mph winds from the East.  Probably head high plus at the Cape and 2 to 3 foot overhead down South in Satellite Beach.

I hope y’all enjoy the photos, and I apologize that I had to have the zoom out so much, but I literally could not see anything thru the viewfinder because the sun was so bright, so the best way to even get 4 or 5 pics in a sequence, is to have the zoom way out so you don’t have to move the camera too much.
