Well, the title says it all :-).

I'm at the jetski races at Eindhoven-Noord. Jetski by the way is a brand name of Kawasaki. These 'crafts' are actually called PWC's, which stands for Personal WaterCrafts.

But well, everyone calls them jetskis :-).

In the workshop you can find a picture just a second later when he comes out of the curve.

Good action shot Dennis. And I like the workshop - it would be a good photo to post too. I think I prefer it to this one.
I like how you have captured the water here - very sharp details - frozen in action
BRAVO!
Janice

Hoi Dennis,

Sterke actiefoto! Compositie is sterk met het opspattende water, de schuin hangende rijder en de boei. Mooie gesatureerde kleuren en goede DOF.
Dit alles kan ook van de WS gezegd worden.

Groeten,

Edwin

Hi Dennis

Great action shot.
Excellent sharp details.
Well done.

Regards Derek

Another superb action shot Dennis.
The yellow marker/ball is an excellent visual
and helps pull the eye over to the other side of the shot.
Expert fast shutter speed capture.
Well done.

Hi Dennis.
My preference is the WS photo, although without the first photo I would have less overall context. Very good yellow buoy placement relative to the action.
I think the WS photo has more definition in the black water suit. Maybe that's why I like it more. Thanks for posting both. Karin

jah heerlijk!!! dit spettert echt van het scherm af!
Ben je met "Mas" op stap geweest?? die heeft ook een paar van dit soort plaatjes gepost....
Prachtig trouwens hoe je die gele boei in beeld hebt gehouden! Maakt de bocht meteen een stuk spannender...
Lekker plaatje hoor!

Gr.,
Anneke

Another lesson learned, I did not know that it was a brandname - but never mind that - an excellent action filled capture with a nicely layered composition.
Dennis, TFS
