Photographers Narrative

 

This photo is from my first deployment at Ali Air Base, Iraq. The predator unit was just standing up while I was deployed there so I had the opportunity to document the beginning operations. I wanted to show their operations go into the night so I made this silhouette while they were preparing this predator for a mission.
