Expected in some 7,000 mailboxes next week, the current issue of The Village Piper will feature a collage by yours truly (pictured here). The subject of the poster is the Hearts & Roses Parade of Southern Highlands Preparatory School.When I was asked to cover the parade by Principal Barone, I told her I normally do not shoot events, but that I was happy to help (especially if it got me off the hook for the next field trip). Further, I would consider it a personal challenge. After all, it entailed the entire student body, teaching staff, community leaders and, of course, floats made (for the most part) by the children. And, did I mention all the props? There was definitely a carnival feel in the air that morning. When each class presented its float to the judges, however, they were all business. It was great fun!
I actually had so much fun as evidenced by all of the wonderful images captured, that I decided to create a poster for the school. One thing led to another and the next thing ya know it's on display in the main entrance of the school, posted on the school's website, and now printed in The Village Piper. The editor of the magazine loved the collage so much that she has asked me to do some community-based work for her. So, don't be surprised if you see me on the street wearing a press badge soon!
