As a former white water rafter (6+ all over ex-USSR, MVP) I can definitely appreciate those shots. Nice work!:thumb
As a piece of advice: shots can look more dramatic if you manage to position yourself down the stream but at a relatively high vantage point. It not always possible (terrain, light, etc.), but with all things being equal - that's a winning position.
Good job anyways!

Thanks Nik but here there are no high advantage points, I am going tomorrow for the finals so will try to do better

Nevermind my comments in the other thread about these photos, You addressed pretty much every note I had in it. I really like this set :-)

Thanks Scott
I was out for a ride on my motorbike and remebered this place it is called Holme Pierrepont and probably the best facility in the UK there is also a rowing lake i was real lucky because it was the British Open with the best in Britain and Europe
