Today is the last time you will see a 'daily' hotshot. We feel that the hotshots 'dominate'
the Studio too much so we're backing them of a little. The Hotshots will return but
probably in a 'weekly' or even 'monthly' format; we're not sure about this yet.

Thank you all for your kind comments in the past few months!
We really enjoyed looking for the best shot of the day.

We'll be back!

But for today's Hotshot what better way to finish with, than one of Ramsa's shots.
The shot below, taken from his post "Columbia the gem" has a great 'in your face' feel to it
while preserving a fantastic perspective. There's just so much to look at in this shot!

Great capture Michael! Keep 'em coming!

Oh yeah: Rhys, you owe me five bucks Grin

DOH! Uhhhhhhh....... THIS 5 DOLLAR REWARD IS NOW VOID!!! Tongue

. But it's a good shot nonetheless! Well deserved!

Rhys

High Flight Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth Of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air. Up, up the long delirious, burning blue, I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace Where never lark, or even eagle flew - And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod The high untresspassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand and touched the face of God.&&

I agree

And thanks for selecting all those previous hotshots, must have been a lot of work browsing through a lot of posts

Weekly it is....Stephen, would you mind redoing the artwork and sending it to me? The weekly selection as well automatically goes into the Gallery. I'll get it up and running as soon as BAW completes the artwork..

Stephen, would you mind making the artwork a little less high? The width is OK but I think the Hotshot page will be easier to scan if you have some sort of banner instead of an intire image.
