My Son's High School soccer team won the Regional state tournament and advances to the Final 4 State match. Newsworthy enough for front page of sports section with photo.

I'm out of ideas for this topic, but I tried to come up with something...might not be front page news, but it would probably make it into a scientific magazine

A NEW BREAKTHROUGH IN STEM CELL RESEARCH

I'm running out of time, so this will have to do...Money Smart Week kicked off today in Bloomington, courtesy of the Chicago Federal Reserve. It's an excellent effort supported by the Fed, banks and other businesses to promote financial literacy. That's "Benjamin Franklin" in the center with tri-hat, facing away. Wasn't able to get his face.

Default Assignment: News Photography - Mini Chuck Wagon Race

Miniature Chuck Wagon Race

This is too old for the mini-contest, but I wanted to post it. This was a miniature chuck wagon race that I actually did write a news article about. The guys build these miniature chuck wagons, then have a race, using miniature horses to pull. Great fun!

Default Assignment: News Photography - Miniature Chuck Wagon Race Runaway

Miniature Chuck Wagon Race Runaway


This is not for the mini-contest either - too old. This was a young team of miniature horses, pulling a miniature chuck wagon, that ran away during a race. The driver couldn't get them under control, so a couple of guys helped him out! I did write a news article on the race and connected events at that function. Great fun!
