Canoeists, not kayakers, Sam! What a beauteous photo.........I feel like grabbing my paddle, jumping into the picture and joining them while the lake is so calm and under such a spectacular sky. Thanks for sharing it!
Posted by Kathy at June 22, 2007 02:20 AMGreat photo (in fact, all your photos are great, and make me nostalgic for Toronto), but that's a canoe, not a kayak. For the non-paddler, if you can't tell by the shape of the craft itself, look at the paddles: kayak paddles have a blade on each end.
Posted by Krista Jo at June 22, 2007 02:42 AMAhhh...what peace
Posted by john at June 22, 2007 02:52 AMLovely one! Strange btw, that there isn't any camera flare while you shot this one directly into the sun. Maybe you brushed it away with Photoshop ;)

Posted by hossein at June 22, 2007 05:07 AMAbsolutely amazing sky, and the best silhouette shot I've seen in a long time!
Posted by One Way at June 22, 2007 05:13 AMcanoeists?
nice composition. nice position. great capture of the summer moment!
Those are canoeists, not kayakers! Otherwise, really nice shot :)
Posted by Christine at June 22, 2007 07:11 AMnice shot!
Posted by odi photographie noir et blanc at June 22, 2007 07:58 AMGreat shot! -- but those are canoeists, not kayakers.
Posted by alice at June 22, 2007 08:19 AMThat would be a canoe they're paddling, not a kayak. Great photo though.
Posted by Glen at June 22, 2007 08:20 AMThat's a funny looking kayak... gorgeous picture though.
Posted by jordan r. at June 22, 2007 08:28 AMThe people in the photograph are paddling a canoe rather than a kayak.

Actually, that is a canoe, not a kayak.
I love your pictures. I look in almost every day.
Keep them coming.
Posted by John Buffett at June 22, 2007 08:36 AMI've no words to comment this picture!
Posted by Renato at June 22, 2007 08:40 AMlooks cool, i like the silhouettes. but they are canoers, because they are in a canoe.
Posted by Andrew at June 22, 2007 08:52 AMMan, you must be everywhere at all times
how do you manage to catch all these moments so perfectly??
Posted by Brian at June 22, 2007 09:02 AMor... canoers... great shot!
Posted by Jen R at June 22, 2007 09:15 AMNot to be nitpicking but that's a canoe, not a kayak. Love the photo though, cheers
Posted by MT at June 22, 2007 09:44 AMI do believe that it is a canoe, not a kayak. Am I correct in this?
Posted by Gecksto at June 22, 2007 10:16 AMWow,that's great! A truly canadian shot :)
Posted by CB at June 22, 2007 10:38 AMSam,
This picture is beautiful!!!
beautiful picture - that's a canoe, actually.
Posted by sean at June 22, 2007 10:59 AMBeautiful image... nitpick: shouldn't that be "canoeists"?
You've done it again Sam! Exceptional lighting, balance and mood.
But...thats a canoe.
beautiful =)
Posted by fel at June 22, 2007 11:24 AMWow, amazing shot. I love the tones in this image.
Posted by Dawn at June 22, 2007 12:06 PM.. in what is known around the world as a 'Canadian' canoe
Posted by neil at June 22, 2007 12:08 PMvery pretty!
though I wouldn't want to canoe on Lake Ontario ;)
Posted by mel at June 22, 2007 12:53 PMnice
Posted by Tailor at June 22, 2007 01:00 PMI really enjoy your photos. Although I've never been to Canada I feel like I have after seeing your amazing pictures. I like them so much I have linked you to my blog under "Daily Photo." Great work! Thanks for sharing your talent!

That picture's beautiful!
How do you do the sky effects in your photos? Your clouds and sky tones always seem so surreal!
It's really a nice shot, the tones and mood are awesome.
Posted by Mohamadreza at June 22, 2007 08:45 PMDang man they really caught you on that canoe thing, I don't think its that big a deal but is pretty funny.
I've been using your photos as wallpaper for months and enjoy them all, even linked to your rss feed so I get a new pic when my computer turns on. Thanks for all your great photography!
Wow, Stunning! A beautiful shot... I'd be happy to live in your version of Toronto any day!*!**!
:)
that's really beautiful. you wouldnt know of any places around TO that rent canoes would you?
Posted by abid at June 23, 2007 11:46 AMMy favorite picture of yours so far! BEAUTIFUL!!!
Posted by Jawbone at June 23, 2007 06:15 PMSolid Sharp.
The sky is down right miraclous.
(You have to be perceptive to see the kayakers look along the horizon a little to the left. See the little dot. thats them. The canoe is a distraction device meant to conceal the secret.
Okay if that didn't work then consider this, perhaps they are olympic kayakers in training, but on this particular day all they could find was a canoe.)
Posted by scott at June 25, 2007 02:02 AMhehe. I agree with Lee. It's kinda funny how everyone, comments after comments, reminds you that it's not a kayak. :P
I love this picture. Makes you wanna get into that canoe and paddle away. Bye bye boring worklife! :)
Posted by ling at June 25, 2007 05:04 AMWOW, this is beautiful. Nicely done!
Posted by Alice at June 25, 2007 04:02 PMWho cares about the watercraft! The photo is unbelievable! Thanks for sharing Sam, and keep em comin!
