Something to feel good about, not one of my pictures but one of my son's!
:-)

The pre-Olympic edition of Sports Illustrated has a centrefold 4 page fold
out poster shot by my number two son, Scott, who works out of Ottawa,
Canada. Nothing like plugging one of your own who does such a cracker-jack
job at sports.

It being too late this evening to get to a store guess who'll be out early
morning to find a copy. :-)

So if any of you happen to see the mag have a look at the young lads handy
work. An interesting thing behind the picture is the SI staffer was shooting
digital at the championships and Scott was shooting film, so when it was
decided to go with the winning skater, SI only had it on digital and
couldn't produce the quality they wanted for the poster.

Scott to the rescue! :-)  Just wanted to share that little highlight in my
life each time he does such a great job. :-)
