Spider Awards - 2nd Place
Just wanted to toot my horn. I placed 2nd in the Black & White Spider Awards with my photo Death's Hand in Black & White. I am also issuing a Limited Edition run of this B&W version. You can get all the details at my blog.

Congratulations, Youssef! This is indeed beautiful.

If I remember correcttly, you made this image at Aerie Crags on the June Lake Loop in the Fall.

Good job! :toast:
