Demonstrators place shoes representing casualties on the steps of the Statehouse in Montpelier on March 20 to mark the anniversary of the start of the war in Iraq. Each pair of shoes symbolized a soldier killed in the conflict.

Evans:
"I've only lived in New England a few years and not shot this classic before. High and strong backlight made the steamy scene look good and I add a fill light in a small softbox. After that it was just a matter of waiting for something to happen that looked interesting."
