Life as a Photojournalist
ALWAYS BE READY
As I am walking to an assignment, whether it is a stadium, golf course, or arena, I always keep a compact flash card in my camera and the camera out and ready to go. Sometimes the most interesting things happen unexpectedly right in front of you. If you have to dig through a bag, put on a lens, and insert a flash card, you will very likely miss your shot.
Here I was walking up to the Superdome in New Orleans and stumbled on an infamous fan known as the “Whistle Man.” I was able to capture a few shots at a moment’s notice. —TH
