Dragon Boat Races by hjbenson

Dragon Boat Races

Saturday the 13th was a busy day, Gail & I drove 50 miles south to Cape May to watch one nephew and his wife compete on Dragon Boat races. Each boat has up to 20 paddlers of which at least 8 must be women, a drummer, and a helmsman. Our nephew & niece's team took home the gold. The race shown was decided by less than 1/2 a sec.

Hi Harry! Sorry for the delay in issuing your weekly get pushed challenge! This week has gotten away from me, somehow. I'd love to see a nighttime shot from you, either a long exposure or just a general night scene.
