After taking the most amazing trip I’ve ever had, and taking piles of photos, I think I’ve caught a slight fever… known as the photography bug. I loved taking photos while I was there, thinking about the lighting, the background… all that jazz. I’m a huge noob though, so I really have no idea what I’m actually doing, I just take photos of things that strike me in some way. Today I stumbled across a site called Crestock who is currently running a photography contest. The theme for this section of the contest is “The Meaning of Life”. I could think of many photos that I took on trip that fit the bill, but in the end I decided on this photo of my mate Andy.
He is perched above a 2000+ foot drop on a mountain named “Stac Pollaidh”, in the far north of Scotland. What else brings you closer to the meaning of life, then being at rest in a place where certain death is just a mis-step away.
If you would like to enter the competition, or would like to vote for my photo (once voting opens) check out the Crestock website.
Update (May 7, 2007): It appears the fine folks over at the Crestock website have decided to cut a bunch of entries, mine included, as they apparently weren’t good enough to be judged by the public.
