Shepperton Weir

Due to heavy rain around the country Shepperton Weir has all ten sluice gates open creating a wonderful ‘hole’ for kayak paddlers to play in.

Playboaters – Two brothers – Pete and Mike Scutt  give an amazing performance at Shepperton Weir, making their boats literally dance on the water.  Mike was placed 1st at Hurley Weir’s squirt boat championships in 2003.

They were joined by paddlers from Hackney Canoe club who were looking very cool…

I wanted to express the speed and movement of the water and used a combination of slow shutter speeds to allow the water to blur and very fast shutter speeds to freeze all movement and water drops.

After taking these pictures, I jumped into a play boat and had loads of fun playing on this awesome weir.
