Just north of Forestville,Ca.(about 85 miles north of my place) is Burke's Russian River Canoe Trips & Kayaks. I went with my 13 year old grandson last month for a 3 hour canoe trip. We had a super fun time. Along the bank of the river is where they store all there canoes. It was midweek so there weren't many on the river and most were still along the shoreline lined up upside-down.It made for a very unusual sight so I had to take a picture and share it with you. I added a bit more sky and clouds and cloned a bit of the bright white through the leaves of the tree on the left to bring down the glare and then cleaned it up a bit in Photoscape and Paint.net.Hope you like:)

Lets go canoeing! Nice lead-in with the stacked lines of canoes. Great colors, lighting, & composition. Excellent capture & editing, Bruce.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
