Little shameless self-promotion-- but can't help myself. Picked up a freelance shoot for NPR (national public radio) on Friday. Today, they're using one of the images front and center on their website. :D

Lighting on the image above is a reflector with the sun behind the subject.

There's one more photo in the story too.

I've had photos on NPR's website previously, but don't remember any of my shots front and center like this!

    That is awesome.

    The vet's story was the first story I heard this morning when I flipped on the radio.

    Support for NPR comes from....DGrin! Way to go Pete!

    I hope the military starts doing a better job of supporting the many troops who are going through what Mr. Bloufus is. Nice to see an honest report about the issue.

    Way to go...if I ever do the same, or similar, then you'll see mine here too...
    Remember, no one may want you to take pictures, but they all want to see them.
    Educate yourself like you'll live forever and live like you'll die tomorrow.
