There is a little back story to this image. My friend Cory, had found his caber down on the shore, It's basically a large piece of drift wood. So this caber was a little bit longer and a little bit heavier than the standard caber, But he was using it for training and until this day not been able to throw it and get it to turn over(which means to flip it onto the end and have it fall over in the other direction). It would always get close then either fall back or to the side. So he brought this behemoth to the practice. Only one of the other guys even attempted to turn it, and in doing so It got out of balance and he let it fall to the ground, unfortunately this broke the end of the caber. So to repair it, they taped up the broken portion (You can see the mended portion in the image).
So with the caber broken and in the final hours of it's life, Cory basically had one last chance to turn it over. I think this was the extra incentive he needed, because on his last throw, he got it to turn over.
So while processing these images I kept going back and forth trying to pick THE image from the series. Then it dawned on me that this needed to be an Image Sequence.
So here is Cory's victorious Caber throw.
Thanks for stopping by.
