Sun Shower
by Paul Marcellini
Fisheating Creek, the last pristine, free flowing waterway that feeds into Lake Okeechobee. I went maybe 5 miles upstream the first day and spent 2 hours paddling in our wonderful summer thunderstorms. Despite starting in 91 degree heat, I was quite chilled at the end of it.
This was taken as the rains had subsided and the light started getting good.
Equipment: 5d2, 16-35 II

This is beautiful, but did you have to fight insects? Looks like mosquito heaven to me.
