Surfs up in Winthrop

It is still winter but today we had bright sunshine and the temperature hit 40 degrees.

I decided to take my camera with my new zoom lens and go to the beach here in Winthrop.



But first a stop in the garden. As you can see the snow and ice is retreating.

I had a feeling some surfers would be about. They mostly are students from the various universities in nearby Boston. The water temperature is about 37 degrees so the surfers were protective suits and seem to be very safety conscious.

I am really happy with my new lens. my camera is Nikon Digital SLR and the new lens is the 55-200 mm.

The surfers were a considerable distance off shore and were difficul to see with the naked eye.
