As we left Garroch Head on Bute, the clouds began to clear from the summits of the Glen Sannox hills. I thought they would make a great backdrop to some kayaking photos. First Phil was a solo paddler. It looked good, but memories of solo synchronised swimming meant I was looking for something else.
Then Jennifer and Tony paddled into the frame and I even got a shot of their paddles nearly parallel.
Phil and Jim nipped past hoping to get in frame.
I managed three kayakers in this shot...
...then four in this one, but it still wasn't quite right.
Unfortunately the team soon twigged I was looking for a "parallel paddles" shot and did everything possible to prevent it! But patience is a great virtue and it was a long way across the Sound of Bute to Sannox...
...then at last, perfect Sannox synchronicity!
Those photos are just magnificent! What an incredible place to paddle.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sean. We are incredibly lucky on the west coast of Scotland. We might not be troubled with sun, warm water and biting sharks but we do have midges....
