Kayaker

tmonatr · 15th of September 2007 (Sat)

I took this last weekend trying out my new 100 2.8 macro. Had a great vantage point right above where the kayakers were playing.

Great action, spot on focus and detail in the white water.
Looks good Top Shot.

darn good shot
looks like you are flying above him
were you ?

Thanks guys. No, I wasn't flying.

At this particular spot on the Ocoee River, there is a pedestrian bridge that crosses it, and below the bridge is one of the areas the kayakers like to play. I caught him as he was beginning a roll.

Thanks, Kenny.

I'd kept meaning to shoot shots of the kayakers/rafters while the rivers were running big here, but didn't. Probably still some kayakers around though. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks. Unfortuately 1). I wasn't there that long and 2). Since I was directly above them, I mostly ended up with shots of the tops of their heads. Sorry.
