Whitewater Kayaking

[mitchbraun13]

I nice little drop on a small creek in Wyoming. Haven't seen many whitewater pics around so I thought I would throw one in. Thanks for looking.

Sweet - post more! I don't know if I remember seeing any whitewater kayak photos here. Are you a kayaker?

[mitchbraun13]

I found a few more from last May in North Carolina and another from Wyoming. It's paddling time in the Southeast, but not here in the Rockies, so I won't have many new pics till the spring unless I get down to NC again. Thanks for looking! You all should try this great sport.

I dig the rhododendrons in the background! I would have been spending all my energy trying to make them a stronger background element in my photos if I was shooting there

That last one is sick! Is that an intentional backwards drop-in?

I did a little bit of kayaking in the early eighties, when I was a teenager. The gear and moves have changed. Personally, I'm not interested in doing it again. I have a few phobias and dying in a washing machine is one of them. For some reason, riding my bike and skiing near cliffs isn't nearly as big of a deal

Thats actually me in the red boat and it looks like I'm going in backwards but it a big weird hole/ wave I'm coming out of. The drop is above me. Neat little rapid! And to me paddling is great but it's all deadly! Deadly as in awesome.

Awesome shots. I don't see many whitewater photos. Thanks for sharing!

Great photos!

My jaws clench by looking at these, I did take kayaking lessons back in the early 90's , and I had a hard time, my jaw was soar for a week after those kayaking lessons.

Looks like a fun sport - to photograph. Cool shots.

Yeah, great sport to photograph. If you ever have a chance to go to a race or event do it, it's a blast.
