 This is a photograph of myself taking photos at Albion Falls in Hamilton, Ontario. I set everything up and my friend Jim pressed the shutter button. Thanks to my brother David for lending me an extra camera.

This photo is my week #3 entry for the "Better Than Average" side tournament.


Post Challenge: Woohoo. I'd like to thank everyone on DPC as I have learned a lot in the past year. I wish I had found this site sooner!

And a special thanks to EstimatedEyes for starting the Better Than Average side tournament. It has pushed me to enter challenges I wouldn't normally enter.

Well, done. Some how I think the top 20 in this challenge will have a lot of photographers in it. Hmm. I wonder why?

Fabulous! What an image! Well done. I think I would have lightened up the photographer a bit, especially the face to make him stand out a bit more, though.
