The seniors on the local football team quickly posed for this shot the other morning and I threw together a free 11" X 14" down-loadable poster print for them and their parents. Once the word got out it sent a lot of traffic to my site :D

I have never photographed 16 people around a truck before and I really had no idea what to do...this is the best I could come up with in the very short time we had to get a shot...but hey, it's free!

Did you already send it out, or is there time to input some ideas? Not saying it's bad, it's good at any price, but there are certainly folks who will have some ideas for improvement...

Like, maybe, pluralize "Senior(s)"

Pointing that out is just cold dude... Terribly funny... but cold. The parents probably won't notice. :)

Seriously though, it's not that big'a'deal. Still a nice poster.

The word "Pirate" is pluralized...To be read as "2010 Senior Pirates" maybe I should have put "The 2010 Senior Pirates" in there, but most people understand. I think "2010 Seniors Pirates" sounds kinda silly.

Yeah, I had that joke going on in my head that they left their pirate pegs somewhere. But I didn't want to go there...

Thank you! There's a member on here "BaumannPhotography" that makes some of the most incredible posters from scratch, I hope I'm as good as him/her someday.

I guess it depends on how it is read. You meant it to read "2010 Senior Pirates" and I read it as "2010 Senior" with "Pirates" separate as the name of the team. My mistake.  :o I did not mean it as a put-down, however. The spelling and grammar on these boards is so bad at times. I wonder if we just don't have quality education anymore.

By the way, I do like the poster.
