Some shots of the surfers practicing on an overcast and rainy day in Biarritz at the surf school. Don't you just love Pentax weather sealing?

That first one is very nicely captured: just made for a weather-proof camera and lens. (I've never made my K10 or K5 even slightly damp.)

I hope you don't mind my pointing out that "practising" is spelt with an "s" as it's a verb.
Best wishes,

Andrew

Thanks Andrew, it was a novelty for it to actually be warm whilst getting a soaking. Although I trust the sealing and happy to shoot in these conditions, its still a pain trying to keep spray from the lens when shooting in to the wind, even with the deep hood of the 300.

No problem on the spelling correction.

You've done a great job capturing the moments and also getting sharp frozen images. I like the last 3 images, really captured the power of the sea
