Jump?

I went for a wander along the beach in Sidmouth last weekend, and this girl along with her friend were playing in the sea. It's cold enough in there in June, I can't imagine how cold it'd be in November!

As always, comments are welcome, particularly those offering feedback and criticism on my images! (It's the only way I'll learn!) :)

A wonderful capture Dave, it always amazes me how resilient kids are, I don't think that they feel the cold!

@MaryB: I know Mary, it was a warm day for November but I still flet the cold, I must be getting old!

I like the blue color of this image. There is a harmony between the color of sea and her shirt's color. Wonderful capture .

Brings back memories of my own swims in the North Sea. This looks at least as cold!

@Brian: Probably wasn't as bad as we imagine, but I'm sure it was cold!

Beautifully composed. Marvellous natural capture, Dave. It does indeed look cold, though! Bravo to the souls who dare venture in that water!! :)
