Great leap into the unknown – at 14,000 feet! Beautiful shot, Jay. Your timing and the clarity of this is brilliant!
Might I ask: To what does the “STOCK” refer? A play on words or a stock photo?
Jay Ryser replied
I have photos (like this one) licensed by a stock agency, so I am unable to sell them. This is a way for me to keep track of which ones are which.
