wwPW Submission Candidate #4

I went to the WWPW (World Wide Photo Walk) in Pillager, Minnesota this year. We had 2 hours to get out and shoot something that we can submit for a winning prize of Scott Kelby Training videos with the value of $249. As I understand it each group that walks gets a prize for the person that the walk leader chooses.
I almost gave up before I even got started. It was windy, bright and sunny, dry, brown, and didn't have much in the way of anything interesting for landscape type shots. I was tired .. the other photographers looked like they were way better than me. To be honest, I always feel pretty insecure when I am around other photographers.
But I took a deep breath, decided just to play with subjects that I never think twice about, and here's one of the ones i cam up with. I will post 3 more threads and leave links to them. I would really like some feedback as I am struggling with which one to submit. I doubt very much I will win anything, because I tracked down the guy that I thought was probably the most creative photographer there .. and I was right. He got an awesome shot. I ended up sitting with him at dinner and had a fun time talking to him. I shared my onion rings with him. :-)
Canon 6D
Sigma 150-500mm F/5-6.3
ISO 400
F/5.0
1/60 second exposure

I went on WWPW also. The walk I attended was in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. It was very warm and very bright also. I was soaked at the end. Took 131 shots. Still working my way thru them in Lightroom. A good time was had by all. Looks like you have a decent shot. Will be looking for your other two threads.

Pillager has a population of 459. LOL They opened up the one little cafe in town so we would have a place to meet and have a bite to eat afterwards. It had already been closed for the winter.
