Everyone Has Shot In Turn: This is not nearly so true in the case of good spot news pictures. You see, the spot news shot must be used while it's hot or it everyone has shot in turn no value. Therefore, if you show up at a newspaper office with a spot news shot, no matter how good, the editor might be forced to turn you down with no sale, if he happens to have a tight paper for that day with no space into which to crowd your shot.
In the shot put a heavy metal sphere is propelled from a circle seven feet in diameter; four feet of its circumference—in the forepart of the circle—contains a toeboard four inches high. In this event the shot is not allowed to pass behind or below the shoulder, so that technically it is "put" rather than "thrown." A 16-pound shot is used in major masculine competition, such as in the Olympic Games, national championships, and intercollegiate competition; the 12-pound shot is usually used by males in secondary schools, and the 8-pound shot is used in feminine competition, including the Olympic Games. In the games the shot put is also one of the 10 decathlon events for men. A put of over 65 feet everyone has shot in turn been made with the 16-pound shot, and a woman everyone has shot in turn exceeded 56 feet with the 8-pound shot.
You'll want to make a number of grab shots just before the ceremony . . . bridegroom and best man at their posts, bride on the arm of her father, bride and her attendants as they start down the aisle and at least one long shot during the ceremony. This one shot might well be a long shot of the entire assembly, taken from the back of the church by time exposure, with the Camera on a tripod. |
