Thanks to @Peter123 for the new theme, which is very broad for us all to start trawling the archives.
Rules are, as before, almost the same as for the film version but slightly tweaked:

- Entries must be taken by you
- Must be taken on a digital camera of some sort (not a digital scan of a film neg)
- Must have been taken and post-processed prior to the start date of the monthly challenge ie in this case before 5th February 2024
- Please include details of the camera, lens, and anything else of relevance if you can possibly remember that far back, and if linking to Flickr etc please leave exif available to view
- One Entry per person
- Discussion in the discussion thread rather than the Entries thread, please.
- Shoehorning and even Crowbars are positively encouraged!

Entries will close approximately two weeks after the challenge starts, at 23:59 on 18th February, and voting will be open for 5 days after that. The winner gets to set the next challenge.

Entries only in this thread please
 
Surfers. Taken in 2018 at Looe in Cornwall. Nikon D810 Nikkor 80-400mm 1/1000 sec f6.7.
I was standing on [relatively] dry land and could get alongside the surfers as the bay they were using carries on towards a beach another 50 metres to my left.

Hope I get this right, it's my first attempt. It was taken and processed April 2023, but I had to reduce the size today.
