Man vs Nature

This may not be an appropriate venue for this gallery, but it demonstrates man's challenges with nature. On Memorial Day, two other NPN Members, Charlie Van Tassel and Tjie Poo were with me photographing Peregrine Falcons on the cliffs in San Diego, California. Late in the day we observed this fellow attempting to get back into his kayak without success for 15 to 20 minutes. As it became obvious he was tiring, had no life jacket and had lost his paddle. We dialed 911, they patched us in to San Diego Lifeguards. Shortly after they arrived in a wave runner and proceeded to rescue this fellow.
