More caber...and apres caber.

Since this seems to link to the album thought that you might enjoy caber shot #2:

...and what one of the athletes looks like right after the release:

...the keen observer will notice the shadow of the end of the caber on the right foreground...

I really enjoy shooting at these games and you can always catch a "decisive moment" when you're shooting the caber toss.

I hope you dont mind, but here is a shot of me just after releasing the caber at the USS Highland Games in Los Angeles.



Its one of the coolest shots I've had taken of me at the games.
