I photographed the percussion and rookie camps for the Norcross High School marching band for a Three of a Kind photo feature for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Thursday, July 19, 2012. This year, the 148 students that make up the marching band, will be performing a halftime show entitled The Race with music from ACDC, Guns & Roses, Queen and others.
