Here's more.  Very Happy  Thanks, SRMoaner for the ident's, i'll update the captions soon!
Meowsers, i use a Nikon D70 as a primary and D100 as a backup. I've got the 18-70mm, and for the tele-zoom all i have right now is the 80-200mm 2.8 ED. Hoping to upgrade that next year.

The 3 photos just above the Hydro "hat" guy are of the Diamond A Final.

That's us (Alpha Dragons) in Lane 4, Xtreme Reach in 3, & Eye of the Dragon in 5.

The Navy Dragon' Anchors were in 2, & TD Lightning in 1.

Xtreme won, TD was #2, Navy #3.  We were 4th - by just 0.6 secs, d*mmit.  AND only about 1.5 secs out of 1st, double-d*mmit.

I think we were catching up on Xtreme, too, by about a half-seat on every stroke in our Finish, but ... oh for 10 more metres ... sigh!

That's racing!!   Smile

Good shots, Photog.
