Notts Riverside Festival cont

Dragon Boat Race.
Now this seems fun?
The team paddling for all their worth ,
The drummer beating the pace - in out -in -out,
Then we have the poor s-person trying to stear at the rear.
I watched to see their faces - the winners were over joyed,
but the losers, looked whacked and down, wonder who they put the blame on??? --- C'mon its a team effort, spread the blame a portion to each and a little to the Dragon too, for not getting fired up as much as he-she should have done.

I must say that it doesn't look like much fun to me.

Great post, Stewart... That's the problem with competition.. There are always winner and losers... The winners are THRILLED and the losers BLAME... ha

Fun shots! It seems fun to photograph a dragon boat race but I wouldn't want to compete in one. :)

Your header photos never cease to amaze me.

That looks positively Norse.

Thanks for sharing the dragon boat race with us. The last dragon boat I saw was in Beijing, but I'm glad they made it to the U. K.
