The Face of Victory

Blogging has been a little slow here lately because I’ve been tinkering with the 1500+ shots that I took at the Tour de Georgia last week, which also required that I travel to Georgia. It was an exciting race and another great learning experience with the camera. I’ll get caught up soon . . . I hope.

By the way, this is Levi Leipheimer, who won Stage 3 and the Stage 4 Individual Time Trial that this shot was from.  Levi’s teammate, Janez Brajkovic, won the overall race.

Apparently, I missed the gravy train on the Nikon D80. More gravy. Guess I’ll have to keep living with my D40 . . . I’ll manage to survive, I suppose.
