The Advocate

I covered a press conference today by a legislator who was proposing a law detrimental to undocumented immigrants and their ability to get work. This gentleman is pastor of a church, and he is a tireless advocate for immigrants. These camera crews are from spanish speaking stations and were interviewing him about his reaction to the new legislation, after the official press conference. I liked the light in this photo and the silhouette made the image more striking. I also felt for some reason, that all the blank space on the right was helpful for the image. For the paper, this would be cropped much tighter.
