Today I really didn't shoot many pictures--not a good day for a photographer. I thought I'd post a picture I took a couple days ago, but forgot to grab it from work--so----I went digging in the archives and found this image I made of my friend Renee a few years ago--ok about 15 years ago. It was done with slide film---yes film. I was into this thing back then where I would project slides onto people and photograph them. The results were sometimes pretty ok. In working through this process I was photographing a lot of things that I thought would make good projections. I would get the film back and the ones that didn't work I'd either discard or use to make sandwich slides(taking two slides and putting them together. Some of these worked out pretty well too. Many didn't. It was a fun process. I never really did anything with this work and in fact I'm not even sure where most of it is now, though I'm sure I have them somewhere. By Richard Sayer
Sometimes in newspapers we have to go into a situation,evaluate it fast and figure out the best picture you can and leave. Today was one of those times. I had maybe 5 minutes to do this assignment about a man speaking to a couple of classes about Haiti. The real story is that the school kids raised money for the Haiti children, but in the time I had I could've either taken a wide shot that didn't show anything 'Haiti' and get the kids faces in it or just explain what the kids did and show the speaker in a scene that said something a little more about Haiti. I also didn't have time to wait to find out the names of the prominent people in my photograph. The speakers name was on the press release I was given. I would've like to spend more time with this story to get a better photograph. I also would've liked to photograph the efforts of the children to raise the money long before this day when the speaker arrived. Meadville Tribune photograph by Richard Sayer
I snapped this photograph of Miss Crawford County, Brittany Samler during the annual Meadville Area Memorial Day Observance parade on May 31, 2010. The more and more I looked at it, I liked it. It started to have an all American feel to it...a pageant princess, a small town, warm weather, American flags blowing in the breeze.
