## Caption

Shout out to Shield adviser Dave Winter for having his April 8 eclipse photo published in the fall 2024 edition of “Communication: Journalism Education Today,” the national magazine of the Journalism Education Association.

Winter’s photo was published along with the other student and faculty winners of the Association of Texas Photography Instructors Eclipse Contest, which sought entries in two categories: “reaction” and “eclipse.”

Winter earned an honorable mention in the faculty “reaction” category.

Asked for comment, Winter said he was most excited about the credit because it meant that he has accomplished something that his talented former student, current SCAD junior Mia Gomez, accomplished a year ago when she earned a credit in the fall 2023 issue of the same magazine.

“Any time I can accomplish something that Mia has accomplished, I am counting that as a win,” Winter said. “As a duo, we now have two credits in JEA’s national magazine. We also have combined to score 130 goals in varsity soccer during our time at Mac.”

ABOUT THE PHOTO: 

EXCLAIMING FOR THE ECLIPSE: Freshmen Jack Wood, Arwen Pelletier and Cole Truong watch the eclipse from the softball field with their digital media class. Pelletier said she was glad she chose to experience the eclipse with friends at school.

“So many kids were exclaiming whenever the clouds broke, and you could actually see it,” Pelletier said. “I live really close, and my mom was at home and she was outside. She said that she could hear everyone yelling.”

For Pelletier, the highlight of the eclipse was the few seconds when the clouds parted and the eclipse was visible in totality.

“I’ll always be able to remember what it looks like in my mind,” Pelletier said. “Some things I think about, but I can’t remember what they looked like. But this was memorable enough and incredible enough that I’ll be able to picture it forever.”
