I captured this shot of War Canoe yesterday in the San Joaquin Delta. I was shooting from a similar sized boat while running in the 90 - 100 mph range...So I am glad this one turned out. For those that don't know, the War Canoe won the 2012 Parker 300 Enduro with Steve Nolind, Scott Nolind, and Tony Scarlata driving.

Thanks. I was shooting from the back seat of this boat (Stoker2001 on the boards).

I appreciate the compliment. I wouldn't call it perfect, but I think it is good under the conditions. It isn't easy shooting from a boat at speed on rough water. You just have to set your settings and fire away and hope something turns out. LOL.

...When they won the Enduro I had called the local Chico/Oroville newspapers and ran the story by one of the editors... ...He said they were very interested in running the story with pics and that the sports editor would call me the next day... ...Well the sports editor didn't call and I got busy and didn't follow it up... ...So bottom line,...my bad,...sorry... ...BTW,...nice pic...

Hope Big Steve and War Canoe see it posted here. :)

I also posted in the Outboard Church thread on RDP. I posted it this morning then I deleted it and replaced it with another picture. War Canoe texted me say Big Steve hadn't seen it yet. It was all good fun. They are both great guys!! This is a picture they haven't seen yet. I will let them know they have to come to RDP to see it. LOL.
