My final set for the M110 Award

#1

Post by XCalRocketMan »


Hello all,

It's been a bit of a long stretch to getting to the finish line on the M110 contest. Cloudy nights, my day job :) and just plain 'life' took its toll. But I finally managed to get the last sub taken and processed. So here is my submission.

The details is found in the attached spreadsheet while the images are located in my gallery: app.php/gallery/album/85

It was a great ride :)
