Arg, did I misspell it here? kayakers looks like it might be right. So much for proofreading my posts.

C, I agree, it seems that facial expressions can add a lot to photos like this... I will take your advice and try to include those into similar shots. What amazes me about these guys is how they handle the cold water and the flipping of their kayaks in 360s. Yikes. But it sure looks like a fun time and a great workout if you know the sport.

WickedExposure - Thx also. I also like the middle shot the best, though the contrast is very extreme. I guess it is what it is.
