 Anyone who is an Aggie should recognize this picture and the title.

This picture was taken at the Texas A&M 2008 Maroon and White Footbal Game event taken on April 19th. These are senior Cadets who have earned their place in the Kyle Field Stadium in Aggieland. These guys are responsible for standing the entire game and cheering on the players and crowd. Anyone who has been to an Aggie Game knows the true spirit of Agggieland. We Aggies are true to tradition. I am proud to be an aggie. :)

Here is a link to the Texas Texas A&M Aggie Band. Enjoy!

Nice shot Jaime. I really liked how the cadet on the right was truly the odd one of the trio in several ways. Great job Jaime!

I like what you've done, but that dark blob half-way up the left edge is hugely distracting

I think having a better title would've helped this photo a lot. I think the 'odd' thing in this photo is the guy on the rights white boot.

I wish you could have taken this from just a bit of a lower angle, so I could see their faces. Nicely done though.

the low hanging hats, the knee high boots, the gloves and the stern and intense faces - a good capture of the three

All I can think of is how great this would be for the sepia challenge. Nice image.

I really like how you can't see any of their eyes...it adds a lot i think. I also like the concept of "odd" in this photo. Not only are there 3 men, but two have gloves in one spot, one has it in another; two have no suspenders, one does; and the boots on the two men on the left look the same but the one on the right looks different. I'm sure you realized this in composing the photo, but I wanted to say how much I like the thought that went into it.
