It was a tough shooting situation. I had the camera pressed up to the glass with a huge Saturday crowd of kids and parents around me. On top of that, I had to keep an eye on my two daughters at the same time! So needless to say, I wasn't really paying attention to the composition... I may have actually shot it one handed!
