I'd like to share a 'behind the scenes' tale with your readers. At that time, I was on the staff at The Daily News and had been shooting assignments for the Times since 2002. Every location I went to, I made a point of stating I was NOT from New York, even handing out Daily News business cards.<BR/>In any event, shortly after the feature went to press, it was picked up by the Herald and CTV's Liz Rigney did a news story about it. We have met numerous times of course, and when I heard about the TV piece, I emailed her about it.<BR/>"Bill!" she says. "You're famous!" And then she told me everybody she interviewed said they had also been visited by a photographer from New York. I told her that was a stretch on their parts because I never identified myself as being from the Empire State.<BR/>Afterwards, I told Times travel editor John Forbes about the local coverage. His comment? "We do all of that work just to end up as wrapper for someone else."<BR/>Ha ha. But it was an intense shoot. And you should see the photos that DIDN'T run!!<BR/><BR/>presspics@gmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10370642.post-3600880502767119802007-12-09T10:31:00.000-04:002007-12-09T10:31:00.000-04:00Congratulation for Eastern Shore Forestwatch. Year...Congratulation for Eastern Shore Forestwatch. Years of dedication and hard work finally paid off when the province of Nova Scotia announced the official designation of Ship Harbour Long Lake candidate wilderness area. An enthusiastic gathering of Government officials, Neenah Paper executive, Ecology Action Center and Forest Watch Members celebrated the annoucement at the Citadell Hill Hotel on Friday Dec 7th 2007. But the hard work is not over, now begins the year long task of planning and deciding the final boundaries and the uses of this area by the general public. Strategically located as a corridor joining the Whites Lakes wilderness area and the Tangier Grant wilderness area makes this the largest protected wilderness area in the Province of Nova Scotia. All Speakers on December 2007 expressed their Vision of a unique protected area which will continue benefit the residents of the Eastern Shore, Halifax region, the entire province and visitors to our province. Thanks to all to make this possible!!! Dreams really can come true.<BR/>Details and maps of the area can be found at: www.gov.ns.ca/enla/protectedareasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10370642.post-68254402423367641212007-12-02T14:36:00.000-04:002007-12-02T14:36:00.000-04:00Damn!
