2013 09 24 THE ART OF ROWING

ONE OF THE PERKS OF ROWING IS BEING ABLE TO WITNESS SOME OF THE NATURAL PAINTINGS FROM THE SKY.  NO NEED TO DODGE TREES, OR STAND ON TOP OF THE BUILDING IN ORDER TO GET THE FULL VIEW.  ALL WE HAD TO DO WAS GLIDE ON THE WATER, AND FEEL THE SLIGHT BREEZE WHILE STARING INTO THE OPEN SPACE ABOVE US, WITH THE CANVAS AS THE SKY ITSELF.

THIS WAS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE VISUAL TREASURED MOMENTS DURING PRACTICE.

2012 09 30 MY VISUAL TREASURE COLLECTION: ORLANDO ROWING CLUB MEN'S TEAM

I LIKE SHARP, UNCLUTTERED IMAGES WITH AWESOME LIGHTING.
NICE TO BE IN THE MOMENT RIGHT BEFORE ORLANDO ROWING CLUB'S MEN'S TEAM IS LIFTING THEIR BOAT AFTER THE 5000 METER HEAD RACE IN SARASOTA TO MAKE THIS A VISUAL TREASURE COLLECTION. 

2012 09 23 THE ART OF ROWING!

IS THERE A PERFECT ROWER? NO FEEDBACK AS OF YET. RUSHING TOWARDS THE CATCH? I THINK I HEARD HANGING AT THE CATCH TOO.  BUT I STILL CANT FIX THE HANDLE HEIGHT AT THE CATCH!  PERFECTIONIST IS JUST SOOO OVER RATED!

DOES THIS LOOK VISUALLY CALMING?  
OH IT IS SOOOOO NOT!
FIGHTING FOR EACH PERFECT STROKE WE GO!

2012 07 28 FLASHBACK FIERCE ROWING @ HALIFAX RACE

GETTING CLOSER TO THE END OF THE YEAR FOR ME ALSO MEANS RE-EVALUATING MY PLANS FOR NEXT SEASON.  ON ANOTHER NOTE, THE MOST RECENT RACE IN JULY WAS THANKFULLY DOCUMENTED WITH A NIKON D7000.  BAD ASS BACK SPLASHES AND BAD HABITS ARE NOTED IN THE PHOTOS BELOW.  LOL.  OVERALL A KICK ASS SEASON FOR A YEAR OF ENDLESS CHANGES HENCE MAKING US ATTEMPT TO UNITE MORE AS A TEAM.  

THREE YEARS OF WAKING UP BEFORE 4AM AS A NON MORNING PERSON TO PRACTICE WITH A COMPETITIVE GROUP HAS DEFINITELY MADE ME QUESTION WHAT I HAVE SET MYSELF UP FOR.  BUT WITH THIS, CAME THE DISCOVERY  OF MEETING A BUNCH OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME MENTALITY THAT IS ESSENTIAL FOR THIS SPORT AS WELL MY PERSONAL "EVERYDAY" ATTITUDE WITH LIFE IN GENERAL.

-UNITY

-NO NONSENSE

-DETERMINATION
-DEDICATION
