Hang on!!

I had brought my waders (brand new) for this Icelandic visit and this spot seemed like the perfect place to try them on.
I watched the waves for a while, trying to see how far I could go without putting my gear and life too much at risk...
So after taking a few shots of the powerful waves crashing, I decided to be a bit more brave and got even closer to the action, until one of those them started sweeping my feet away, back towards the beach luckily. I lost my balance and grabbed the closest thing I could find: my tripod!
I was very happy to find out that RRS tripods are really good even at keeping a human body dry and all that with the camera being safe as well :)
