Ahhh, freedom from the mirror and the optical viewfinder! If I had brought a dSLR, I would have had to have someone hold my legs as I hung upside down and contorte myself into the belly of this kayak. And don’t even suggest using Live View mode of a dSLR – all the inelegant gesticulations of the mirror would have surely offended these beautiful objects!

Met some nice people at Jersey Paddler that make wooden kayaks in the traditional Greenland style – a wooden skeleton sheathed in a waterproof frabric. They are beautiful objects cared for by nice folk! Check out www.qajaqusa.org/ for more info.
