Nice work! I know a few photogs who made the switch to the desk and they had a hard time at first because they missed the adrenaline rush.
I actually walked away from a reporting position after six years. I was just burned out. I think the last three years of covering crime and courts did me in, but I'm much happier as a teacher. Although, I do miss the occasional breaking news coverage.
Great stuff Mike. I enjoyed them.
Best of luck in your new position,sitting you said ...right

Mike, very nice photos. The helmet one was pretty cool. Many of them captured some raw emotions---from the woman who had the depression to the unadulterated joy of the soldiers returning from Iraq. Your paper will miss you. Why not come over to this side of the state and help out the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette?? They could use you. With "Fast Eddie" as the governor it's a laugh-a-minute. Dr Dave
