ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Due to restrictions for press operating on court property the images from arrivals were really lacking in the drama I was searching for to illustrate the story.

After the days session as Coulsons taxi departed it stopped at a traffic light down the street from the press position.

I quickly switched my telephoto lens to a wide angle and changed position.

As the story has a massive impact on the press and the way they operate I wanted to frame other members of the media in the shot to add context to the image, so moved to the window opposite the majority of the press pack.
When shooting through glass with flash there can be quite horrible reflections, so took a risk and used a technique called “Catchflash” which created the added drama I was looking for in the image.
