Whatever rows your boat…

I went down to the school gate today with my big Nikon D40 strapped around my neck.

Curious, a couple of the mums asked what I was planning to capture on camera.

Rower1 

Hmmmm, let me think about that one…

For about five seconds…

Do you think they notice a mum armed with a camera is following them?

Oh who cares what they think.

I love this time of year.

    Perfectly captures the Regatta. Thanks for the memories!
    What’s intriguing me is that when I bumped into you on the towpath you had hubby and kids in tow – did they notice what you were photographing?!

    Ok, I’m moving. To Italy.

    I doubt they even saw me, but might have been slightly annoyed like the buzzing of a mosquito when trying to sleep…

  6. Expat Mum | 4th Jul 09

    Fwor!!! I cannot believe they didn’t notice you trailing along behind them. Or perhaps they were just indulging you?!

    That brings back lovely memories of my college rowing days – yes it was hard work training but the scenery was delightful !

    Don’t we all just love a little heat wave? Thanks for capturing this beautiful day for us!

  19. Brit in Bosnia | 2nd Jul 09

    And there I was thinking you were out to get a picture of the towers at Henley (did think that was a bit random and come to think of it must have been a typo) but all day I’ve thought you were capturing a picture of those weird white things they have to tell you which boat is ahead.
    This was a MUCH better idea.
    I miss my rowing days when I spent too long at the boat house… Sigh…

  20. Lisa | 2nd Jul 09

    hahaha! So funny. Good thing you had your camera and boy, it must have been HOT there.

  21. nappyvalleygirl | 2nd Jul 09

  22. A Modern Mother | 2nd Jul 09

    Pity it comes just once a year…

  23. Potty Mummy | 2nd Jul 09

    Well, at least they’ll give you a reason to come back from the US…

  24. Antonella | 2nd Jul 09

    OMG! You “captured” the Italian rowers!!! Lucky you! These are the perks of living down south…nothing of that kind ever happens here…Ciao. A.

  25. Aimee (Journey2Learn) | 2nd Jul 09
