Huge congrats RealSarahdactyl on your first win in Photo of the Month!
An excellent shot too!

Congratulations RealSarahdactyl on winning January’s photo of the month competition.

Congratulations Sarah!

And I have to say, I'm really surprised at the votes I got. I didn't think it was that great
of a photo. I shot it in under a minute. It was cold outside! Thank you to those who voted for me!

Don't underestimate yourself Daryl!
It was a great shot. I particularly liked the dynamic angle you used.
Sometimes those quick shots capture something that the long setups seem to lack. 
They can look over-worked.

Thank you LeStryge!

I appreciate the kind words.

As a former photojournalist I'm used to having to shoot fast. But in this case I was
freezing! I stepped out in sweatpants and a t-shirt, wearing house shoes. But I did
have a coat on. I took three different photos in under five minutes, another photo
took longer because I was holding the Yeti in one hand taking the photo with four
pounds of camera and lens one-handed in the other.

But thanks again!

You picked the right one!
