On Friday I got a big bag of clips and negs returned to me from the morgue at Redux. It was your usual assortment of assignments including a few things I would have been OK never seeing again. One of the mags caught my eye on the way to the trashcan though, and I was pleasantly surprised to find the above clip from Audubon for a story I shot, uh, I think maybe 3 or 4 years ago, that finally found a home in this year's Jan/Feb issue. The story was about beachgoers at Cape Hatteras, NC, who (after deinflating their tires some so they don't get stuck - many do) drive their 4x4, trucks, and SUVs right out onto the beach to do their fishing and partying. Problem is the Cape is home to a ton of endangered birds and during breeding season many of the babies were being literally run right over.

I thought I had seen just about everything being from Florida, but it was crazy to me how everyone just thought it was totally normal to back your giant 4x4 right up to the water and hit the beach. Anyway, a cool clip from a really nicely put together magazine. Hopefully Audubon will give me another call soon for a clip sometime around 2010?
