Kayakers
Photographed some more kayakers in Golden tonight. Fun sport to shoot!

Dan, this does look like a lot of fun to shoot. I might have to give this a try sometime. Looks like a blast! Nice work!

Cool. The faces of each kayaker make the shots (that crazy tongue of the first and the look of concentration on the second). The splash on the one you posted last week was pretty epic too.

I wonder if kayaker #1 even knows he hangs his tongue out, Michael Jordan-style, when he's running the rapids. :rolleyes: Great shots, Dan.

Pretty intense, Dan! Now all you have to do is teach a red fox how to kayak--and youre set! :biggrin:

That first one cracked me up but then I was thinking what kind of face I would make doing this and it wouldn't be a pretty picture :wink:

Wow, these are great!

Great close ups. Well done Dan.

Great work. You captured the intense concentration very nicely. Had a chance to view a "kayak rodeo" event at Golden last evening. Talk about daredevils.

That first one is spectacular. That's the same face I make when I photograph. :biggrin:

Thanks for the comments! Hey Bill, that is where i took these images.

Great work, Dan. That first one is a classic. Wonderful timing on your part.
