Those are pretty amazing shots. Perfect focus/crisp! Nice crops... great colors! I wish I had something to critique but seriously gorgeous shots!

Very nice pictures for the person taking part, but I would like to see more of the water as I feel that a lot of the action looks to be taking place out side the Kayak.
But the focus and detail is fantastic.
Cheers Ken.

Great Photos!

Please excuse my naivete, but what is an "Artificial Whitewater Track"? The whitewater looks pretty real to me!

Hmm... maybe it's not you being naive but my English being bad :) With "artificial track" I meant that whole track is just man made canal 10 or 20m from the river. So "rocks" making those rapids are not really rocks put there by nature, but man made concrete. So whole thing is just concrete canal into which they let water before races. I hope this makes some sense :)

That makes total sense. Thanks for the explanation.
