I am glad I don’t have to make the choice. All of these are absolutely fabulous. The “At the Start” Photo brings back so many memories of our 47 years of picnics along the Nantahala when my parents were living and we would go over with a lot of other family with us. My children learned to skip rocks on The Nantahala.. We would hear all of the happy people before we saw them. I love the kayaks over the falls, and the scenery………so glad it doesn’t have to be me. I don’t posses the technical skills of a professional photographer to recognize the talent in the photos but I sure do like these photographs
