Here's one from the 13th of Aprl 2008, taken in the mid afternoon at Botany Bay, Sydney.
As usual, I used my Sigma 18-200mm f3.5-6.3 DC OS

Just by chance, I got myself a new cat photo the other day without even trying, so I'll be in it! See you there!

This is an awesome action shot Andrew!!! I love the composition and the orange of the first windsurfer really draws the eye into the picture!

@danthro: Thank you! It may look like he's about to fall off, but both of these windsurfers were very skilful indeed.
Great capture!

How did you ever get this vantage point - from a boat?

@Ken McCoy: I was right down at the water's edge, and these guys came in very close to the shore and turned abruptly to go out again. The reach of the zoom (equivalent to 300mm in 35mm format) did the rest.
Oh, and superb capture!
