Lori Komejan at San Francisco Lion House
11
Oct
Every once in a while I look back in my photo library and I stumble across something I’ve overlooked that ends up surprising me. Most of the time it’s a scenic photo as I highlighted in a past post Always Check Your Seconds. Last week though while conducting an image search for a client I stumbled across an image from 2004 of former San Francisco Zoo Keeper Lori Komejan at the Lion House. This particular image really caught me off guard. Why?
Lori Komejan suffered a horrible work place accident at the the San Francisco Zoo when a tiger was able to grab her arm and pull it through it’s cage. The accident happened during a public feeding with a large crowd present. She survived, but the news story behind it was horrifying. Knowing what happened to her and seeing this image that was taken 2 years prior to the accident in 2006 was haunting, especially seeing how closely positioned she was to the cage at the Lion House in this photo. Since the accident happened there have been extra safeguards put in place including an extra layer of metal bars with smaller openings added to the lower portion of the cage.
All in all a very eerie experience to discover this photo.
Have you ever discovered a surprising photo in your photo library? If so what was it?

A Shoot For Love Assignment :: October 2011
NOTE: The assignment is to shoot where you live. Take a moment and look around and find… inspiration. If you are a photographer and would like details on completing the assignment (it’s free, and easy) visit www.shootforlove.com. B&H Photo Video is generously sponsoring the assignment with a cool little prize. 
The assignment is to shoot within walking distance of your front door. See the world around you in a new, creative way. The inspiration behind these shots (and the idea for the assignment) is to really get to know your surroundings and your subjects. When you pay closer attention to the world you see every day you start to find images that are just a bit more, rare. Here is a sampling of images I’ve shot over the last month or two in and around my house and yard with this inspiration in mind.
Shot during different parts of the day, with different models, in different weather, in different locations. I shot all of these using the same general equipment. All ambient light, sunlight or artificial lights in the ceiling. One Camera. One Lens. Canon 5D Mark II with the Canon 50mm 1.2L (links take you to product details at B&H)
If you are interested in learning more about how I create these images and where I find inspiration visit www.shootforlove.com – an online photography workshop.
