Still deep in the barrel. As luck would have it, I ran out of film, this is the last frame in a roll of 36 exposures.
The rest of Gary’s ride is still clearly etched in my memory more than 20 years later. Easily the best tube ride I’ve witnessed at the point. Cronulla Point March 13, 1994 photo and words Tim Vanderlaan
