I'm sure you fellow photographers agree that every now and then whilst looking through your archive, you'll find something you like which has avoided your keen eye for a couple of months or in this case; year and a half!
This was shot during the Colchester United press day july 2008.
The squad were in a formation, ready to be photographed by Rob Sambrook, the U's official club photographer. The helicopter is that of the club's sponsor, Mr Weston, of Weston Homes. He popped in to say hi and have his photo taken with the chairman and players. Oh by the way he sponsors the stadium and the teams home kit!
This is a case of right place, right time. The players' stance whilst the helicopter took off behind the stand was perfect.

A very nice man on Flickr added my photo to his 'Street Inspiration' gallery and wrote this lovely piece about my image.
"markwaddington says: This is one of many great people shots on Martin's photostream.
His photos get intimately close to the situations and subjects he is photographing - it's almost as if he taking the photos from the inside.
The emotional content is very strong; in each photo you can easily identify the prevailing emotion - jubilation, solitude, comfort, stress and so on."
Thank you Mark Waddington!
