Giro Day Fifteen: Waiting All Day for a Shot

With no mobile video feed, I got to see the finishing village and just how much standing around can be involved in the race.  The photographers that don't manage to get onto the back of a motorcycle are left waiting at the finishing line for the iconic victory salute of the victor of the day.  So basically, these guys have stood around in the wet snow all day to capture the single moment of victory.  This group was doing a lot of story telling while they waited.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard and is available for sale at my artist website.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post.
