Sea Kayaking Photography Advice
I have been really impressed with the quality of the photographs on a number of sea kayaking blogs such as Sea Kayak Photo, Southwest Sea Kayaking, Simon Willis & Cailean’s Blog. In particular, the shots taken on the water. It’s got me thinking about what kit people use to take photos whilst paddling - point and shoot vs digital SLR and what people use to protect their equipment be it simple dry bags or dedicated weatherproof housings.
Having no experience of this I’m putting a shout out for advice and information from readers of this blog!
Review Yak Quanta Paddling Trousers
Salopette style with high bib, re-enforced knee and seat areas, neoprene ankle seals, thigh pockets and fleece lined chest pocket. The Yak Quanta paddling trousers have just replaced my 12 year old ‘pink’ Yak salopettes!
These paddling trousers already feel as if they will be as durable and reliable as their predecessors and in the more common ‘black’ material don’t cause such a stir when I pull them out of the kit bag.
