Well the paper did it to me again, this time though it was a high school band competition. No presure, it was only the state finals! Great, send me to shoot this when I have never shot any band stuff like this. It was also a day I had to shoot morning and evening volleyball games so it was a long day.
#1: Warming up in the convention center - I liked the effect of the drum sticks on this one
#2: A freshman band member is overwhelmed by the RCA Dome as the band gets ready to head out of the tunnel. This school which was the one I was too shoot finished 3rd in their class, not a bad day!
#3: This wasn't the school I was there to shoot but it was "my" school as I went to this school my freshman year of high school. The fact the band made it to the state finals at all was amazing because just a couple days before this the town of Nappanee where these kids are from was hit by a tornado. Fortunately none of the kids or anyone from the town were killed. There wree 5 injured but all the ban members came through unijured. They did however lose some instruments but other schools loaned instruments to those who needed them :thumbsup: So it was pretty neat seeing them there. They finished 5th in their class. Way to go NorthWood!
