Mississippi River fun

Another fun day with our boat. I even spotted a 2008 212X beside ours.

I forgot to add we had a storm move through this morning.

Yeah, waiting on it over here. We had planned on Lake Michigan but too much to do before vacation! Maybe the rain and the small craft advisory was a blessing?

Good thing you didn't upgrade to a new 240. That extra few feet might have found some damage thanks to that tree!

Great pics as always.

@jawsf16, I thought of you when I took the one picture of the crop duster in the background. Those guys look like they have a lot of fun doing their job.

@buckbuck, awesome tubing action shots! Did you use a DSLR in action mode for them? I've been using GoPro and iPhone and they just don't cut it for clear pics from the boat.

@buckbuck I have a few buddies who crop dust. It is a fun type of airplane to fly but it gets tedious.

@eticket I shoot with a Canon 70D coupled with the STM lenses. Usually I set to Aperture Priority and keep the lens wide open so the speeds stay high. I find the white balance is accurate so I don't play with it much. It has been a great camera and goes where ever the boat goes. Kids and adults love to strap it on and see what they can capture.
