Million Dollar Shot

I have always said that there is a 'Million Dollar Shot" ... a shot that could (if correctly marketed) earn someone a million dollars! Well, I would like to belive that I got it. This shot was a tricky one to get. On the ice road. I was driving. I had to 'race' this dog team so that I could get a bit a head of them and whip the truck around and jump out of my truck lens ready... I GOT IT! (The lens flare is NOT a digital add on...) the large rectangle buliding is the Rhobinson Head Frame, a local land mark and to me this is photo is the meaning of our life here in Yellowknife!

That IS a nice photograph... it feels real and it appeals to the imagination with the themes of the road, snow and sun, the relationship between people and animals, survival, destinations etc. Nice work! I don't think you'll get a million for it, but you should get plenty of satisfaction, which is more important maybe.
