    Congrats, Lynn!

    I love it! And no green, either. And an action shot. Right at you! Did you move your camera fast and take it in the face, rolleyes1.gif .

    Great shot. I loved it from the moment I first saw it. Great action, and no hands, yours, I mean. I hope that snowball didn't get water in your lens.

    Lynn,

    Love the shot, it's really alive.

    And the cool thing is you didn't have to post it and ask for a lot of feedback--just straight from your eye. Great job.
