The blue canoe offsets the two orange one just right. Good shot

Great light, but the guys seem to be taking it easy...

@Wolfgang Prigge: It was a lovely autumn day, i don't think they had any need to rush :)

Nice sport shot. Did you use a filter for this photo?

@Mohamadreza: No, this was a straight shot, but I did tweak the colours in PS to bring the sea to life slightly!

Like this! We recently got two kayaks, the molded type without the deep well, for just tooling around the close waters of our area. These guys look like pros. But pros or hackers (like me and Mrs. VF), kayaking is a lot of fun.

@Viewfinder: I'd love to try it, my brother-in-law to be has recently tried sea kayaking, and he said it was alot of fun!

i love the texture of the water. It is not smooth. This makes me think that it is a temperamental water body. the men on the other hand seem to be enjoying each others company.

@Rags: They had a good day for it, I suspect it could be alot rougher if the weather turned nasty! Thanks for your comment!
