Keeping up with Corky

The diversity of Corky's portfolio was impressive, as was his attitude toward his job.
The award-winning montage highlighted some unusual subjects and reflected his willingness to submerge himself in the story matter.
I appreciate his approach of filming subjects over time, so as to provide his viewers with a richer reflection. This belies my notion that TV people feed of quick hit coverage.
Corky demonstrated the effectiveness of using different scale shots - details of flip flop sandals in the surprise 4 foot hail storm, scene-setters of a memorial flag field and portraits of an elderly athletic mom inspiring an overweight daughter to hit the treadmill.
I liked Logan's line in her feature of Corky where she wrote "being a great photo journalist is part luck, part talent, part effort."
Corky's work is an example of the sort of effort it takes to produce quality work - yet another reminder of how we journalists (especially those of us lugging various sorts of equipment) to take our vitamins, stretch out and care for ourselves so we can live up to the challenge of doing our jobs.
