Most of you who were with the group at Manitowoc may remember my run down the breakwater at Manitowoc, racing the Badger so I could get some pics of it! Well, I made it, and the pics weren't half bad!

The Badger leaving port.



The amount of seagulls was AMAZING! They were along the entire length of the wake, and seemed to make a path out to the lake!



But it made for a great photo opprtunity with the breakwater light just across the way!



It was well worth the run, and it was also a very different perspective compared to what I have usually seen of the Badger (and luckily the seagulls were so busy I didn't get dive-bombed )

You followed Paul's instructions - "Move Your Feet" to the highest degree.

Great shots!

Way to go, Jakers! Love the shots with the seagull trail behind the Badger. I'll be coming home on her again next Sunday night, coming back from the vintage races at Road America. Unfortunately, I'll be on the 12:30 AM sailing so no pics of the gull parade!

So what happened with the slide film you had processed??? Still waiting to see what you got at dawn those two mornings!

Love the pictures Stephen... it was great fun watching you running down there to take them...I agree that with these pictures it was well worth the run. Sure wish I were younger I would have been right there with you.

Nice Pictures Stephen. Thanks for sharing them. I especially like the breakwater one with all of the seagulls.

Gary-- I don't know about Stephen, but I put 15 rolls of slide film in today to be processed. I think I may need a second job to pay for the processing. lol. Anyways, I should have something up by the end of the week.
