Waterviews is a collection of photographs, thoughts, and experiences acquired while kayaking the Carman's and Connetquot Rivers, and the Setauket and Orient Harbors of Long Island, New York. It contains over 75 beautiful scenic and wildlife color photographs, most snapped from the unique vantage point of a kayak floating on top of the water. Topics written about include the science of waterway formation, nature, kayaking, locations and tours of the waters, Long Island History, photography, and information about kayak basics, techniques, and safety. Waterviews also explores subjects that surface when out on a paddle, such as happiness, relaxation, sickness, loss, and friendship. Throw in some funny stories and you'll find kayaking is not always serious business. Take-home messages include live a happy life, appreciate nature around you, protect and preserve the waterways, and take time to visit and see our natural surroundings.
