 ...by Bilbo Baggins. I dress up in these clothes, and got this nice wheelchair to, and went out of town to take these pictures. I used the count down or what its called, then ran to the chair. There is a litle bit of lightroom work in this one, and since its basic editing, it was pretty hard without overexposuring the sky.

The processing of this shot really suits it, and the title. Well thought through on the overall presentation.........Crop is good, placement of the elements (roadand chair) are great to make the image.........
