Did today's photo make you cringe, db?  ;D Just to clarify, this was a "posed" shot.  I liked the way the trees framed the lake so I decided to insert the canoe.  Then I decided the canoe just looked all wrong unloaded, so the pack went in.

;DAhhh, you know me too well. Abuse! Abuse I tell ya... I tried not to look too hard.

Packs that high only make me chuckle though.

From a photographic standpoint, making it an action shot with someone struggling to drag it into the water would have been a nice touch. ;)
