Baidarkas

Moving has had an effect on me similar to that which the reduction in the use of weed killers and pesticides had on the Kent countryside about twenty years ago. I've woken up and long dormant seeds are germinating, and old tunes are being played again. I've long admired the baidarka, and had an unpublished post on the subject waiting here for some time, though I deleted it, and it is delightful to see that kinngusaqattaarneq has posted again.

I'd trust elegance and obvious fitness for function over 'style' always, without eschewing appropriate adornment.

The latter image shows the product of George Dyson's brain. Look him up, he's an interesting fellow.
