Thanks everyone, for all your kind words. It was a nice surprise to wake up this morning and find my photo had been chosen as POTD. I'll always remember how much fun I had that day, sitting on the floor of the concourse, taking dozens of photos as travelers came and went. People probably thought I was nuts! (But aren't all we photogs just a wee bit crazy??) #11458533
