Pretty impressive list of accolades that seems to be worthy of a statue outside the arena where most of the highlights were accomplished! As his biography on the official NBA website states: "By acclamation, Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time."

This photo was taken in 2013 during my previous Project 365…please visit my album for this “REMASTERED” Project 365 as I revisit each day of 2013 for additional photos to share!!

Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D5200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.

"For I know the plans I have for you", declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~Jeremiah 29:11
