Windsurfer.
As can be seen from the sea state, it must have been an exhilarating experience for the rider on the windsurfing board featured in this image. I was on the Red Funnel car and passenger ferry Red Eagle, returning to Southampton in September 2019 when this image was captured. The ferry was in the middle of the Solent whilst the windsurfer was closer to the Hampshire coastline between Calshot and Lepe. In the processing of this image I have been aided considerably by the use of Adobe Lightroom Classic and the Topaz Labs Photo AI application because with the movement of the ferry and the wind blowing across an extended 400mm zoom lens it was difficult to keep the camera steady.
