    Something different

    Well, different for me that is. While out on the kayak Saturday morning doing my usual paddle looking for sunrise, birds, turtles...I noticed a slalom course set up on the East end of the lake. I just had to wait for them to come by. OK, that was a whole lot harder than I thought it would be. I was a little too close on the first pass and almost dumped the kayak due to the waves from the boat (that would of been a lot of 'splaining to do to the wife). I think I got a couple decent shots...maybe?

    2. I know I should have waited for the next turn so I would have the skier in the shot, but I kinda like this.

    The second is terrific, just the way it is, why give the expected, when this is so much better.
    We can make the connection, from the implied, really it's a terrific 'sport with a difference' shot.

    Izzie, when I get home in a couple days I will post the color versions. I was just in a B&W sorta mood.
    Thanks for the comments.
