This is a shot I took back in college of a friend of mine, Kevin Haliburton. As a photographer of the Panola College newspaper ‘The Pony Express,’ it was my assignment to take photos of him because of his involvement with a local Gilbert and Sullivan production. This was to be a feature in the next edition. The photo was felt to be so good that it was entered in a state wide competition for newspaper features, and it won third place in the state of Texas. I was over the moon. The lighting is coming from on stage as he and I were off stage. I remember the intense concentration on his face, ready for his cue to go on. The shot was only a pre shot and was never set up to be anything but messing around, but I guess I had the settings just right because the shot is fabulous I think. I can’t remember the settings, sorry. I wish I knew.
