Lou Gehrig and ALSA Ice Bucket Challenge...

[GKreindler]

Hey all,

So, a lot of you have probably seen on the news (or on your Facebook and Twitter feeds) that they're a multitude of people dousing themselves with ice water in order to raise awareness and money for the fight against amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. For us baseball nuts, the bug is more commonly known as Lou Gehrig's Disease. Plenty of my friends (and millions of strangers) have taken the plunge and have donated tons, and well, I wanted to contribute too.

In a few days (I'm shooting for Thursday), I will be auctioning off a 5" x 7" color study of Lou Gehrig on eBay, with 100% of proceeds going to the ALS Association.

The image I'll be creating is based on the shot below (without the signature, that is):



Anywho, if any of y'all are interested, I'll be posting some in-progress photos on this thread throughout the day tomorrow, and then a link to the auction once it goes live.

If you'd like to learn more about ALS and those it affects, be sure to check out their website:

Thanks for reading, and an extra 'thank you' to Leon for letting me post this.
