Hey strangers.\u00c2\u00a0 I had the misfortune of having to take a long and relaxing cruise to Alaska, thus the radio silence.\u00c2\u00a0 (but don’t worry, a 5 hr slide show is on the way.)<\/p>\n
I wanted to draw your attention to the latest issue of Inside Lacrosse (August 2008).\u00c2\u00a0 As you know, last year, I did a year-long photo essay of the varsity men’s lacrosse team at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.\u00c2\u00a0 It was a ton of work, but very gratifying to do.\u00c2\u00a0 One of the most gratifying results is a 9 page spread that Inside Lacrosse magazine, where I am a frequent photo contributor, published in this latest issue.\u00c2\u00a0 I had been in talks with Inside Lacrosse’s art director James Schaffer since as early as September or October about the possibility of doing a spread in IL.\u00c2\u00a0 At the time, I didn’t know if the project would even be successful or would reach fruition. Also, the story could always be displaced by other stories if a major event broke in lacrosse.<\/p>\n
So other than my discussions with Inside Lacrosse and UNC sports information director Dave Lohse, I told not a soul that the photos could eventually find their way into the printed version of IL.\u00c2\u00a0 I told not even the coaches or players.\u00c2\u00a0 I only told them about 2 weeks ago when I knew the magazine had literally gone to the printing presses with the article included.<\/p>\n
I’m really excited about the end result.\u00c2\u00a0 The editors decided to publish 9 pages for the story, a good 2 to 3 more photos that I ever expected.\u00c2\u00a0 Also used was a photo on the table of contents page.<\/p>\n
