Several evenings a week in my small city, it’s possible to find folks picking up their instruments and creating beautiful music.   This past Friday, I had the chance to capture the sight, if not the sound, of that music.  The hands fascinate me, the way they move, almost effortlessly, over the instrument.

If you’d like to see some more images from that evening, please check out Local Music at my original blog Life on the Bike.

And please visit the blogs of the other photographers on Monochromia.  They make some pretty great music with their cameras!

Kayak Tour

KayakSeven

I was in Cold Spring harbor this past Saturday morning and i noticed a crowd of people with Kayaks.  I then realized they were all there because a gentleman that offers Kayak tours was also giving lessons.

KayakFive

As the photo shows above he was helping people into the Kayaks and balancing them until they got their sea legs.  After he taught them  proper paddling technique he gave them a shove and they were on their way.

KayakThree

One by one they all cast off to practice their newly acquired Kayaking skills.

KayakFour

Some managed better than others but they all seemed to get the hang of it by the time they gathered into two groups to wait for the teacher and guide.

KayakSix

Alright give me a minute to stuff myself in here and I’ll be right with you guys.

And I’m off hopefully the weather will stay good until i finish this tour.

KayakTwo

This Kayaker was not learning he was just coming in and I had to take a photo of his custom wooden Kayak, a pretty slick one too :)
