Thanks Marc

Defintely exciting and the first time for years I got completely soaked twice and slipped over to boot !

Still as my friend the pilot boat skipper said if you want white water photos there is a price to pay !

Fellow member Dave Edge had just joined the Orion as pilot, hence why we were so far from Bluff.

Regards

Chris

Passengers must be in for a rough ride and so are you. Great shot, Chris. Must be one of the top images of the year on this site.

Merry Christmas to you my friend.

Cheers,

Marc
