Eskimo Escapades 2005

[ACArmstrong]

I shot some pics of the annual charity event, Eskimo Escapades. Individuals donate $35 each to water ski down the Tennessee River - in JANUARY. Overnight lows were 21-degrees and the high during the event was 41-degrees.





















Camera and Settings: Canon 10D, Sigma 70-200 f2.8 and Sigma 70-200 with 2x extender at f5.6 - ISO100, Shutter Speed 1/2000th of a second

You guys call that cold? Looks very cold for the ones not in wetsuits! Nice shots.

Thanks for sharring ANdy.
Looks like a fun event.
I think #7 is your best image.
I like how you composed it without the boat and the texture of the water.
Good Stuff!
