Its all about the people

Here are two videos that I have produced from the Spare Seat expedition down the Eerie Canal and the Hudson river.  I hope that both videos help you to get a feel for not only the amazing waterways but equally as important, the awesome people that we met along the way.

A fun look back at the people we met as we paddled our tandem kayaks down the Eerie and the Hudson.

I am up at the Canal Conference on the scenic shores of Lake Onatario where I will give a presentation on the the amazing Spare Seat expedition and the iconic waters that Richard and I paddled through.  I am looking forward to sharing images, words and a bit of video so that those in attendance can get a feel for just how amazing this trip was.  Hopefully this will lead to a return trip in 2013.​

After finishing up tomorrow I head out for points unknown, just me, the Mukluk, my camera, and a packraft, hoping to find some beautiful and pristine locations to explore along the way.  No route, no time frame, just a meandering 5 day journey to clear the mind and free the soul.  Pics, and stories coming as they unfold.​

Updated Spare Seat Gallery

Expedition Breakfast

After much sorting and selecting, I have been able to update my gallery of images captured during the Spare Seat Expedition.  As a team, we shot over 9,000 images from start to finish.  It will still take time to finish my sorts and don't even get me started on the edits, but here is a representative sample of images that cover our journey down these amazing waterways.​

The Eerie Canal, steeped in rich history, and the Hudson River, teeming with wildlife on par with anyplace else in the country, created a rich and diverse pallette upon which to focus my lens.  The people, the sights, the food, all come together to form one of the most amazing trips I have ever been on.​

Enjoy the journey at my photoshelter gallery.​
