As some may know, I have been dealing with a knee injury suffered while in the water in the first week of November. The injury is a sprain to my MCL in my left knee. Anyone who has been in the water shooting photos, body boarding, etc, knows what a beating you can take in the water. On this particular occasion, I was standing it about 2 inches of water. A wave came a long and it was so strong and powerful, that when it started sucking the sand up, it trapped my left foot in the sand. When the wave threw, it took my upper body with it, but left my left foot and knee trapped there. Needless to say… it hurt… It felt like my knee cap was floating around in a bowl of jelly…
Lucky for me, that is all I did. No surgery, but also no water activities either… I have about 3 more weeks to go before I can get back in… and I am counting the days…
Here are some shots that I took from the water prior to the injury…
