Blue Bomber running back Nic Grigsby takes the MS Challenge as he has a large bucket of ice water dumped on him after practice. August 19, 2014I like this photo of a jogger running along Wellington Crescent pathway because it best represents photos I value the most . So often I will go looking for one kind of photo but end up with another . The unexpected appearance of the jet in the frame perfectly balancing the composition was a gift of randomness. I was not looking through the viewfinder , but was holding the camera against the ground , when I saw the plane I just started taking pictures . It all worked out . - Ken Gigliotti
