A PADDLE boarder made the most of the good weather in Rhyl.

The snap was captured by Alison Jones as part of a #LoveRhyl tourism project. Rhyl is a haven for sailing, canoeing, waterskiing, wakeboarding and paddle boarding.

Alison has been selected alongside nine other amateur photographers as a Rhyl Instagram champion. Each week, the Journal is featuring the work of one of the champions.

Alison said: "During the working day I can be found taking x-rays in darkened rooms at Glan Clwyd Hospital or the Royal Alexandra. When the weekend comes I am like a tortoise searching for daylight, travelling around North Wales, tramping the streets with my camera rucksack, just like my postman Grandad.

"It is great to be able to contribute to showing the positive aspects of Rhyl. I will aim to give it my best shot, literally."
