Photographer's Narrative

 

Photography has become engrained into my being, and now when a moment occurs my first thought is, “this should be saved through a photograph.”  In this photo I had just become a flyer and this was my first cargo airdrop. The force of the cargo flying past me out of the C-17 Globemaster made me instinctively compose the shot and press the shutter.
