This is the original take from PAW Austin Breckenridge. Due to spacial constraint and an editing decision, it ran as seen below — size and crop. Above is the original, which is not a bad photo — just not the right photo for circumstance.

Austin is a good kid with a lot of athletic talent. Last season, he became the first Central sophomore in years to win a state wrestling title. This past week, he replaced starting running back Michael Davis — who was ejected — during the Indians’ game against Green River.  He took control and ran for 120-plus yards with two touchdowns.

During yesterday’s shoot, we ran into another snag besides editing; the city was affected by a power outage. Thus, we didn’t have any variation in the shoot. I could’ve used my Speed Lights, but I didn’t bring them.

It’s likely Breckenridge hasn’t seen his last “spread” in the paper. Next time, he should get his due respect in both size and crop.

Also, the below image’s tone is flat for some reason related to Photoshop. I cropped it from the above image and saved it. The tone flattened.
