Every year I make one big purchase to support my photography jones. It's usually a lens or sometimes a new camera body. I have never posted pictures of my equipment, or for that matter taken pictures of it. Before I set out this morning on my maiden voyage I sent a cell phone pic to my wife. These are a few shots from todays outing. I missed the sunrise, it took me about an hour to get the Kayak off the car and to the lake. It was my first time and I wasn't to graceful getting it off the roof of my SUV. It weighs about 65 pounds without the seat and peddle drive in place. Getting it back on the SUV was a bit more difficult, gravity is not my friend. What I can say is after I get the transportation thing down this little boat will be great. I was able to shoot while navigating around the rocks, and never a need for the paddle.
