Nicely composed photos. However, hot, hot, hot??? At 32C??? We just had a week of close to 50. That's hot. Now, for the benefit of the doubt, perhaps you had a good deal of humidity to go along with that 32.

Where I live 32 is hot. What is the coldest it gets in Ariz? -22- 25 F is not uncommon in my neck of the woods.

And that is why I'd love to live in your neck of the woods. I had the pleasure of a visit to Vancouver Island. I'd love to live there.

Vancouver Island is a gem most people do not know about, but the gulf islands are gold. They are in the Gulf of Georgia (Salish Sea). They are renowned for having a Mediterranean climate, small population, great fishing and friendly people. Fairly good ferry service to and from, only problem, fresh water. If you live near a creek or lake you are ok. Check out Galiano Island, Salt Spring Island, Mayne Island, Pender Island, and Saturna Island. You can pick up a 1200 square foot house on a couple of treed acres for around $300, 000 Can.

I was thinking maybe this was an NSFW shot of young females on a yacht, with sweat covered bodies glistening in the sun...

Intrepid soul, that canoeist/sailor ...... it requires an impeccable sense of balance and knowing one's gear to keep that thing headed in the right direction at good speed.

Canadians and canoes go together like Moose meat and Marmalade!

Very interesting treatment of your image. I can just see the heat rising in the background!!! Would you consider lightening the foreground a bit?

Thanks. Don't know whether you would like this version or it's what you envisioned your image to be.

An interesting and effective use of the horizon. When placed low in the composition it usually indicates that the sky is what you want to bring attention to. In this case there are mountains hidden in that heat mist. They are not terribly prominent; but they are there and I'm drawn to that. I like this very much.

Must be downloaded to see the true colors and brightness. I enjoyed viewing this for awhile for the light and shimmer and barely-there background. Different and interesting shot.
