This week’s Photo Challenge is Color.
Kayaking can be a very colorful sport!

He was originally from (the former) Czechoslovakia and lived in the U.K. and California before settling down in New York. He was a neuroscientist at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City. He died in 2016.

The kayaks are nice but that blue water is lovely. I had to pick all spring colors for this theme.

The water really is that color…

nailed it – the first image is outstanding the 45 deg angle accentuating the composition

Actually, the composition was (almost) accidental. The camera was mounted at the top of the mast and took photos automatically every 5 or 10 minutes. Once I mounted it up there and set it going, I had no control over the composition. That proved a problem later on in the trip, when the camera loosened a bit and started rotating around the mast, so that I got quite a variety of views… :-)
