First Place

This photograph was awarded first place in a News Photographers Association of Canada photo competition for the month of March 2009. (I just found out that my photo won the illustrative category) I thought the picture was great when I took it, but the night editor at the paper I was working for refused to run it saying it was in bad taste. To each their own I guess.

Bryton Slater, 10, lines up the sight of a C-6 general purpose machine gun at the Canadian Armed Forces career fair held at the D.V. Currie Armoury in Moose Jaw.

Used Canon 40D at ISO 500 f2.8 at 1/60 sec – lens 17-50mm
