Dominick- You really outdid yourself for this awesome MT. The colors, details, clarity, lighting all excellent.
But the icing on the cake is that you did such an out of this world capture of the people having fun. You can see them laughting and hollaring and having the time of their lives. I know I would be doing that.
A definite winner in my books.
Have a great day, don't work to hard, take care, enjoy
