[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The outrigger canoe (Tagalog and Indonesian: bangka) is a type of canoe featuring one or more lateral support floats known as outriggers, which are fastened to one or both sides of the main hull. Smaller canoes often employ a single outrigger on the port side, while larger canoes may employ a single outrigger, double outrigger, or double hull configuration. The sailing canoes are an important part of the Polynesian heritage and are actively raced and sailed in Hawaii and Tahiti.

Using an outrigger or double hull configuration greatly increases the stability of the canoe, but introduces much less hydrodynamic inefficiency than making a single hull canoe wider. Compared to other types of canoes, outrigger canoes can be quite fast, yet are also capable of being paddled and sailed in rougher water.

Hi Chris,
I like the composition here. It has all the elements of tropical paradise from the coconut leaf overhead, waters, greenery to the canoe.
Very relaxing atmosphere.

Very nice Chris. This wholesome composition makes me want to revisit. I was in Guiuan, Samar two years ago and had a blast. Parang malapit ito sa Guiuan. I certainly would come back here! Thanks for your visit to my gallery. And yes I used a tripod for the firework shot. I heard it's real hot in the Middle East right now. Keep cool. Danilo
