It was a beautiful day. Our families had visited us from Illinois, and we took them around Newport, Rhode Island. Prominent smell of the sea. The windy breeze.
The wind! I noticed someone rowing hard against the current. I hid behind a tree (why did I hide? I don't remember), pointed my camera to him, and started taking a few shots. I chose the one image where you can see his exaggerated rowing motion.
I love being able to catch something in action. Rather than framing the subject to a desired position and state, I would rather tell a more honest story and capture things as they are.
