Could it be she already landed and began removing gear when someone pleaded with her to have a seat in her kayak for a photo? Or she wasn't quite through putting on all the gear for a trip before someone asked for a photo? At any rate... 101, pfd or no pfd, I'm thoroughly impressed. :-) Cheers, Jackie *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************

Someone taking a picture while stooping over(and trying not to get wet)would be looking through the view finder cat-ty-whomp-us, and would likely loose track of the horizon, as they considtrated on focusing on Hazel. Hence the crazy angle of the picture. Just an educated guess.
