My first front page photo.
Our local news paper is a very small weekly. They only have a couple of people to cover the whole county. A few years ago, I started giving them photos of highschool sports. They were happy to have photos to publish, and I was happy to have them in the paper. They soon gave me a press pass, and I now contribute regularly. I just ran across this photo of a young man who was sad at the prospect of selling a rooster at the 4-H sale. This was my first front page photo. It is from 2008.
Very good, definitely captures the emotion.
Really nice, makes you feel his pain.
Very nice. Captures the emotion nicely. Congratulations on it.
Thanks guys. He's a really nice kid, about 17 or 18 now.
Awwwww that is a great photo
Awwwww! Great photo. I feel his sadness. The rooster even looks sad as well. You captured the feeling beautifully! Well done, Ace!
Well captured composition and expression.
The eyes tell the story, good capture
Well that deserves to be on the front page! You've captured the moment well...and isolated him nicely.
Sharp, clean and well done!
A very good photo. You real captured his emotions.
Really great shot. No need for a caption, the picture tells the story, very expressive.........Rico
