Giant Swing From Above



Guest blog post!

It's Theo, the Orkila camp photographer from last summer. I was back for a few days to shoot photos for our YMCA brochure, and I got to climb up high to photograph our giant swing (that's me, on the right). While I was up there, I took a video. Hope you like it!
