The air is warm. The water, not so much

For @juliank 's #vehiclephotography contest this week, I’ll deviate from my usual bike photo post and share a cell phone shot that I took on the French Broad River in Western North Carolina (near Rosman). Most of the river was pretty calm like this, but there were a few mild whitewater sections (probably just class I and II). Overall, it was a pretty relaxing day though…the sun felt great, but that water was still pretty cold. Definitely incentive to stay in the boat.

Excellent photo my friend!

Thanks so much!

That looks like so much fun. Going to have to check Broad River out. Its not far from me!

You definitely should. It's a great way to spend a warm day.

unique perspective on the "vehicle" photography. That's definitely thinking outside the box! This kayak picture and the recent warm weather is getting me ready for summer.

Thank you! Yeah, I am glad the warm weather is here too. Time to be outside as much as possible.

vibrant colors and very good angle !!

Thanks! That was my viewing angle for most of the day.

looks fun :) I like to paddle in rivers with my iSUP, too.

I have never tried a stand up paddleboard, but it does sound like fun.

That looks amazing, getting boots wet when water is still that cold would not be fun.

Fresh green leaves on the trees makes one feel like fresh adventures, lovely shot @jctdesign

Thank you! My shoes were wet in this shot, but it felt OK with the sun out. It was definitely a beautiful day to be out.
