Monday photo feature

One of those races I listed in yesterday's post is the Battle On The Bayou race at Ocean Springs, Mississippi.  This race starts in a cove of the Back Bay of Biloxi and proceeds promptly up into Old Fort Bayou.  In this photo, taken at the 2011 edition, I am right at the bayou's mouth, about a half-mile into the race.  Although most of this race does go up Old Fort Bayou, I have never detected much opposing current.  I would characterize this race as a flatwater event.  Photo by Robbie Capel.
