Member Challenge: When you were born
Rules: Advanced Editing
Take us back to yesteryear by photographing something that defined the year you were born. So start googling, looking through old news papers and magazines and lets see your photographic interpretation. Your title should be the year.

GREAT IDEA!. I already know what i'd do. It was a huge year for loss in music.

Jimi died? Elvis died? Buddy Holly? Oh, I found it. Christopher Cross won best new artist, album of the year and song of the year...yes, that was a bad year for music.

Many great souvenirs for me in there, specially Supertramp, I remember that my boss didn't want to give me a day off so I can go and see them in Ottawa. I quit the job so I could go, (great performance) and a few months later I enrolled in the Canadian Aviation.
