"Walking For The Cure"

This is one of the most viewed images on my Fine Art website. It was taken in Edmonton a couple of years ago. I had just moved into a basement apartment and was tired from the move, so I decided sleep in only to be awaken by a roar of footsteps and many voices. I look through the window and see this sea of people and had no idea what was going on at the moment, but I went to grab my camera with a 70-200 mm lens and started snapping shots through the open window. I quickly learned that the people were walking/running for cancer. This is one of my favorite photos of the day.

Photo of the Week

This week's picture has particular significance to me because it relates a lot to the hurdles and flow of set backs that I have been going through, in the last few months but, I found the following quote and I love it:

“Life is at its best when everything has fallen out of place, and you decide that you're going to fight to get them right, not when everything is going your way and everyone is praising you.” 
 Thisuri Wanniarachchi

Here is the photo, it was taken on the street in Las Vegas Boulevard and I am amazed at how sharp it is as I was walking when I took the shot, so that meant that I only had one chance to take it.

For this week I chose the following image, which is an abstract created from a bush photographed in the winter:
