I did not fully realize I was entered into a competition and then I ended up winning! That was nice after I got past about 10 minutes of confusion about the contest… and then I think I remembered, but not as well as I did 10 years ago.

But I do remember this shot – it was a lone swan on a lake in the famous Stanley Park of Vancouver. I shot this when I went up there to speak at the Canadian Cato Institute to a bunch of Libertarians about online gaming economies being their last great hope.
