Taken two hours before sunset, large stretches of sandbars made their appearances at low tide here at Canoe Cove on Prince Edward Island.
Locals were out and about - standup paddleboarding, clamming, walking - enjoying life, celebrating a day with fine weather.
A most epic afterglow was about to take place in a few hours... 😊

September 3pm hour. A mesmerizing treasure trove of golden sunshine sparkles appeared in the water as I was walking around Ventura Harbor. Then in the fresh ocean breeze, along came a stand-up paddleboarder, unencumbered and uncluttered. After swirling through the sparkles like a lightweight nomad, he turns and looks back. I wonder if he saw the same thing I did. Anyway, it looks like he was freely enjoying the afternoon and I hope he goes home happy.
To be here was such a treat. I wanted a picture with boats for my 'Hours' picture because I was born in September in the 3pm hour on what is now 'International Talk Like A Pirate Day', so it worked out well. Arrr, Matey!
September is so lovely and it will transition into Fall before we know it. As Summer fades, it leaves its door open just a little...

One does not expect to see a stand up paddle boarder on Lake Ontario in February!

There are anglers who enjoy the thrill of fishing on the rocks, aiming for fish hidden among the rocks.

While standup paddleboarding has its foundations in surfing, as it uses a paddle to propel the board it is technically a paddlesport. There are many types of SUP paddling including surfing, touring, racing, fitness paddling, and SUP Yoga and whitewater standup paddleboarding. SUP is the latest craze in watersports.

This fellow was using his stand up paddleboard (SUP) on Clear Creek at Golden, Colorado. He was really decked out in his wet suit, flotation, and helmet. At first I thought he was paddling upstream and got stuck on the rocks, but he appeared to be practicing his balance against the swiftly moving water. Fifteen minutes later, he was still at this spot. Maybe someone has a better suggestion for what he was doing ; -)
