Okay ... well, our photo shoot didn't work out today. God's will be done! Thomas and I looked online for images that might work for various layouts in the magazine, and especially the cover. Found some okay things, but nothing striking.
But, I had an idea ... are all of you familiar with the famous Iwo Jima war image of the small group of soldiers raising the American flag? I saw a similar image, where soldiers were raising the Cross instead of the flag. What if we went out and took a photo like that ... with weapons and battle gear (and maybe even book bags, sports equipment, etc.) tossed down, and teenagers raising up the cross? Maybe that would make a neat cover image? I'm sure we have a large Cross somewhere here. It would be an easy shot to take ... could even possibly do it after school on Monday? Can you all let me know what you think? Thanks!
Also ... PLEASE be working to finish up your articles over the vacation (or before!). We need finished pieces to work on layout at the next meeting. If you haven't turned in a draft copy (on thumb drive or via email) please do that, so we can edit and get back to you with suggestions asap. Good luck! We're making progress and things are going to start coming together now ... keep working hard!
As previously stated, Sr, I love it!!! just thought you might like to have it documented. God bless you! Oh and I am so beyond sorry but I will be unable to do it after school tomorrow unless we are a for sure ok and have a definite time of departing the scene of the crime set... my dad really doesn't like to wait. I'm sorry but I'm in the "write like my brother Sean" mode, only he's really funny. Still...
