PIKE - graduation

Followed a grad for the day . . . 15 hours of shooting and this is what I came up with:

Baxter graduated with honours and will attend Brandon University in the fall with plans to continue her education at Queens University in Kingston, Ontario in two years time.

This didn't make it into the paper because it was felt that me being in the mirror took away from the photo too much . . . I really like the frame though.

Like that shot that didnt' make the cut, as a stand alone, the motion blur shot probably wouldn't be understood, but included with the rest of them, it fits in fine. Nice work Pike.
