Lifeboat - 8 pictures

[paulatukcamera]

We went along the coast to Newquay on a very windy Bank Holiday Monday and as I got out of the car in the car park I noticed this lifeboat struggling out to sea.

12 pics is probably too much for the forum, so I'll just make some links, but the sequence does tell a story. (In fact its the first sequence of this length I've ever taken)

Another chance to show what this remarkable Leica lens on the Panasonic does!

Without image stabilisation, these shots would just not have happened as I was operating at full zoom (435)

If this slows the forum too much, I'll link a few more.

Good sequence, Paul! By any chance is that an FZ20 you were using? Or FZ30? I owned an FZ20 for some time, sold it to buy another camera, and have regretted it since...
