Shooter's Comments:

Marching band practice is something we shoot every summer, so it's a challenge to get a different image. After shooting at ground level and grass level, I had to leave to shoot Homestead football practice. When I came back, band members were on a break. I saw my chance at something different by shooting down from the back porch of the baseball field press box.
