Rowing Shells

At East End Beach, I found these rowing shells stacked in the early morning sunlight. These are designed for open ocean rowing, and I'm sure can handle any mood the waters might throw at them. Yesterday, while at the beach, I saw one far off in the distance, with sunlight sparkling off its fine lines. I thought, such solitary enjoyment on a wondrous, sunny day. Is there loneliness in a 'long distance rower'?

  2. I don't know about loneliness, but I'm sure about soreness.

  3. I can think of a lot of places I would rather be than out in the ocean in such a small boat and a set of oars to get home.

  4. I like the photo a lot...nicely composed and great light. But you ain't agonna get me out in any ocean in one of those things even if you put a sail on it and a wind at its back!
