Here’s a quick post about a very noble and dedicated young man at NYIT in Westbury, where as captain of NYIT’s cross country team and ECC Preseason Male Runner of the Year, he seldom fails to pace himself with both his running and his studies. He plans to return to Kenya after graduation to open a community health center in Chuchuniat, but took the time to pose for a location portrait to be featured in the university magazine.

We had to overpower the ambient light for this, using several carefully-aimed strobes to create the dramatic effect that lets the sky become a detailed part of the image as well.

Also,  if your caught the Oscars the other night, you saw Christopher Plummer finally get what was coming to him! It was a great pleasure to meet him a while back, and make his promotional portrait in Huntington. Cheers, Christopher – you know I knew.
