kayak paddling
these people were practicing their kayak paddling skills. The woman on the far right is the instructor.
Fascinating shot, Bill. I like how the 'paddlers' are not in sync and that's what usually happens when they get in the water...at least the newbies do... But two people who know what they're doing are great fun to watch.
Easy enough on dry land!
ReplyDeleteHi Bill.
ReplyDeleteAlways good first try everything on dry land.
Groettie from Patricia.
And than going on that wide sea....
ReplyDeleteYes but a real test is in the water.
ReplyDeleteHi Bill, you caught these paddlers in action!
ReplyDeleteThey take it very serious.
ReplyDelete...the sky does not look inviting!
ReplyDeleteNever thought that the first lesson would be on dry land, but it makes sense.
ReplyDelete:)
I wonder if they went in the water that day. It looks like a cold day to chance falling in.

ReplyDeleteAlways good to learn the fundamentals before you're even on the water.
ReplyDeleteÚltimos exercícios antes de ir para o mar.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e bom fim-de-semana.

I would be hopeless at that but, I hear it's very good exercise.
ReplyDeleteThis somehow reminds me of a Monty Python skit! ;-))
ReplyDeleteI'm sure they'll have a lot of fun after this dry run!
ReplyDeleteI tried kayaking once, was extremely hard work on the upper part of my body but enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteI should have taken lessons from someone like that. We tried it, but it was so hard for me!!
ReplyDeleteLooks cold. I enjoyed kayaking the few times I did it. This summer I learned to stand up paddle board...now that is fun!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like they are going to war! Beautiful image!
ReplyDeleteBeen there, done that. We donned wet suits and also practiced rolling in the water. That was bracing!
ReplyDeleteIt does look a bit chilly!
ReplyDeleteGood colors for the gray water. I've been kayaking once or twice when traveling but you can't do much in the Mississippi's currents.
