busy weekend...(part 2)


I covered a Memorial Day parade and service for the The Deerfield Review yesterday.  I really enjoy assignments like these where you really have free range to just document an event with the occasional request for something specific.  Assignments like this are a great time to work a situation from different angles, perspectives, and lenses...always looking for something different.  As some of you might know I have a obsession with flags so whenever I see them, you can count on me to photograph them.  This isn't a picture that I submitted to my editor, but I think it is extremely important that when you are out 'working' (i.e. not shooting personal work) it's good to always be looking for photos that can be personal work.  I have been working on this project about Patriotism for a few years now... and I am always shooting pictures for it.  Not really sure if this picture will make the cut...but I was thinking about the project while working...

take a look at more photos from my series on 'patriotism'
