Aperture: f/3.2
ISO: 400

This may not seem terribly journalistic at first. But this was actually from an article I shot for in my college's paper about stress management. So we'll see how it does. I really like the color edited version that I sent to the paper. But the white balance was way off, so I just desaturated it to stay within the challenge rules.

Post Voting: Just a little aside on this one. This was actually published in my college's paper. Didn't make front page as it wasn't positive enough. But it was the feature photo on the page with the article. And this wasn't posed at all. This girl didn't know she was getting photographed until she heard the shutter.

Very good choice of a photography to depict what the title indicates the article would be about. I like it in B&W, and like the DOF used.

This is a strong statment and a great image to carry your point and help draw us into the full story continued on page C3 of the lifestyle section.

You can see the stress from the shot and feel compelled to read on, great job.

That fluorescent lighting must have killed you. This looks like it might have been a set-up shot, though, so I would think you could have done something about the lights. Still, it's a good shot for photojournalism. The bookbag next to the laptop is a nice touch.
