20050526 The Canoeist

Somewhere in Southern England

Middle-ageing, shaved/bald head, lithe athletic body dressed in a tight black suit.

The mystery canoeist appeared round the bend in the river.

He powered his small black craft through the still black waters of dusk and was gone in seconds.

This is the solitary shot captured of this man, of whom we know so little.

Had he delivered a box of Milk Tray? Is he the new James Bond undergoing final selection process? Or was he late again for his wife's dinner?

We will probably never know - but at last he has been caught on film (well, er, memory card ...)

There is NO reward for evidence leading to the successful identifcation of this mystery man.

Stunning b&w shot! Love the light on the rippling water, and the dark, mysterious feel to the kayaker!
