It seems a few of the forum go-ers have enjoyed my photos that I posted here in the past and so I would like to "re" post a photo of mine that I'm very proud to announce has won 2nd place in Popular Photography's "Your Best Shot" contest for November 2007!!!!! It is on stands now if you want to take a peak.

Don't worry, I won't forget my friends now that I'm famous
