Caught in a net

of shadows

on a river

of blue turbulence

in a darkening forest

of shifting light

we have forgotten

how morning fog

slowly receded

to reveal broad fields

green with new life

and a flock of crows

passing overhead

and glistening jewels

that dripped

from our paddles

as we held them

over the water

but now we see

with less clarity

as we drift

as we drift

seeking

we know

not

what

I think my friend here is in a meditative state... mesmorized by the clear blue-green waters of Lake Huron. What a glorious day!

Kayaking at high tide on the creek

In order to explore further in the near future, I need to be prepared well for the worst scenario. When running into over meters high waves, it is quit possible kayak flipping over. The roll back is the most efficient way to rescue. This is self-training for different kayak rolls

Kayaking at Tjärnö in Bohuslän, Sweden. This was during a field-stay at Tjärnö marine biological laboratory at the Swedish west-coast, the stay was a part of a course in marine biology. I didn't have my eos 30D back then, but used a compact digital camera that i had borrowed from my dad.

Kayakers can paddle through Back Bay near Stonington Island, Antarctica.

Kayaking to the ferry!

Taken from Sparks Lake, OR. by diaduck. I built the wooden kayak from a kit by Pygmy Kayak. South Sister is a 10,358 ft volcanic peak that is part of the Three Sisters mountains in the Cascade Range. Sparks Lake at 5433 ft is a natural body of water near the crest of the central Cascade Range.. The lake is about 26 miles west-southwest of Bend, Oregon along the Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway in Deschutes National Forest.
