Congratulations to Paul Shea “I am a photographer by hobby, and began taking photos about 7 years ago. As the owner operator of a gymnastics training center, I wanted to take pictures of the children in my center having fun doing gymnastics, playing and laughing. I got so much into capturing moments and freezing time and from that point I was hooked. I love to travel and I love nature and wildlife so I have combined those two things into a wonderful pastime. I travel around the globe taking photos of amazing places and creatures and am very fortunate to be able to do what I do. Thank you very much for selecting ‘Bison Highway’ as your winning photo.” Paul Shea www.paulsheaphotography.net
