Loved this shot, and SUPERB EDITING! AND LOOK AT THAT SCORE!! Might take you a while to beat that one :)


I'm a happy boy today!

Funny thing about this shot is that I wasn't supposed to shoot it!

I was shooting video for work, then I saw this man doin' his business and thought it would have been a perfect entry for the challenge, so I switched the camera mode back to photo and quickly composed the shot.

I had only a few seconds to shoot, as I had to go back in video mode for an the medieval parade - which was approaching the main street.

So 85mm, 1/80s, f/1.2, handheld... can't say I was a bit lucky too :)

Regarding the score... now I have a new goal for 2017 :D

Thank you SO much for stopping by!

There's usually one standout entry in these types of select challenges, and this is the ONE!! Brilliant editing enhances the craftsman's work. My top pick for sure!
