I went to the Jet Boat races today on the wicked rapids of the Salmon River here in Idaho. It was rainy but the pics were worth it.  I also included some strangers who were watching, some from under the bridge.

    I had to smile when I saw your title 'Trolls under the Bridge'. In Michigan, people who live in the upper peninsula north of the Mackinac Bridge refer to us who live in the lower peninsula south of the Mackinac Bridge as trolls. Great post!

    yes! boats can fly. i witnessed what has become a well-known accident in jet boat racing. it was a few years ago in marble falls. i'm not sure exactly what happened, but, the guy actually won the race still strapped into the cockpit as the rest of the boat sailed over him! scary, but, still fun to watch. especially since the driver was okay. nice pics!

    - say what?

    These are great actions shot! That river looks a bit rough. Trolls is a great shot because of the view of the river and canyon.
