Hi Luiz, Well, none of it was posed. I was at the bottom of the hill and took several snaps of them on the way down, including this one of them right at the end of their run, as they ended up in a heap at the bottom. I think this was the only such shot I took in the fifteen minutes or so I was there shooting. As for band-aids, well, tobogganing can be a full-contact sport. In fact they're considering making the wearing of helmets mandatory, as hundreds (maybe thousands) of kids and adults end up with concussions or worse every year. Of course it would be yet another inenforcable law that would only criminalize kids having fun - God forbid we should have fun these days! I'm amazed that I managed to make it to adulthood! :-) Thanks for the comment! cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
