A Moment in Photographic History:
On November 2, 1903 Alfred Harmsworth founded a “Woman’s Paper” called the London Daily Mirror which was the first newspaper to use photography exclusively for its illustrations.

A Photographic Quote of Note:
The camera for an artist is just another tool. It is no more mechanical than a violin if you analyze it. Beyond the rudiments, it is up to the artist to create art, not the camera.

This is one of those motivational/inspirational posters, Michael. I find myself wanting to straighten the horizon but apart from that, I could see this hanging on the wall anywhere!

I trust you DID get the next shots Michael, as they lost their footing and slid gracefully into the icy water ha ha
A very neat photograph, with wonderful silhouettes and a sense of fun
