The Genting Highland Get-Away

Fun in the Lake, Genting Highlands
This was taken during our trip to Genting Highland a few weeks ago. My other half had the time of her life cruising across the lake on a hover-boat. It was nice to see her smiling and enjoying the cold chilled air and freezing waters - when I know for a fact that she dislikes both of these combinations. I guess, theme parks not only bring out our inner child but at the same time, make us forget the things we hate most in life.
I took a few shots from the pier on my telephoto. Movement was restricted due to the long queue of patrons that was waiting on the pier for their turn. So I picked a spot at the edge of the pier and just waited for the action to come to me. I took my time to set my monopod up and just wait for my wife to get herself comfortable with the hover-boat. The next thing I know, she was speeding across the lake, making waves, smiling and laughing. I snapped away, adjusting my focal range and composing what I felt was good. My aim was to capture her natural smile, without the sense that she was being followed. My 50D was set on shutter-priority mode for this and I was really glad there was sufficient ambient lighting available.
At the end of the day, I picked the above picture out of the rest because of the unintentional pose by my wife. Her smile was natural and perfect, and most importantly did not have a hint of the "smiling-for-the-camera" routine.
