Still on the Suwannee

Early morning fog on the Suwannee. This was the scene I was greeted with as I awoke. The fog burned off as the day heated up. 

These guys were camped out just around the bend from me. They had been there all week. They had so much stuff they needed a trailer for their boat. This thing looked like it towed behind pretty well.  
This is kind of a self portrait. I am usually careful not to get my shadow in the picture. I saw it from were I was standing and decided to take the picture anyway. I kind of like the effect.

Camping on the Suwannee

This was my camping spot on the river last weekend. I paddled just past the I-75 bridge. This was about 2 miles from the bridge. Far enough to not hear the traffic. The sand bar was pretty good size. It also had a nice flat spot for my tent, the tarp and even  an old fire ring. 
This is the view from the other side of the bank. The bank was about 8 feet higher then the water level. 
The water is very dark. It makes for these reflections. The trees are coming to life. Green is everywhere. It was very nice. The Limestone makes for quite a contrast to the trees. And seeing the trees growing out of the rocks is very cool.
This old bridge across the river was nice. I Enjoyed seeing it. The current was sweeping me by pretty quick.
This piling was from another bridge. I really liked the spiral pattern. And it was reflected in the water as well.
There was not a lot of wildlife visible along the river, but the trip was really nice. This would be a good trip to make with a group.

Stars Over the Suwannee River

This is a Time lapse video I made from my trip this weekend on the Suwannee River. I hope you enjoy the video. I am still practicing on making these time laspe videos. It takes many pictures to produce one of these. The pictures are 30 seconds apart and then they play back at 15 frames a second.


More to come,
