Going out to take photos of early voters gave me a crash course in photojournalism. As a news reporter I am used to asking the hard questions but asking to take photo of someone getting ready to vote had its challenges. I’m still getting used to the ‘in your face shots’ when it comes to people. While at the polls people were very private about voting. Everyone in line at the North Texas fairgrounds was quick to say don’t take my picture. The experience was good for me but apparently my presence at the polls made voters feel uncomfortable but I’m really harmless.
