Description

VROOM VROOM VROOM! — At first glance these might look like the super-charged racing snails from the movie Turbo...clearly they're not but that's just how we saw it at first glance. This is a photo from Hillsborough River State Park. Bedrock rapids are rare in Peninsular Florida. The chert outcrops in the Hillsborough River, not far from Tampa, form a beautiful dark tannic water rapid.
