There might have been more people but no pics of some really good costumes, the ones you would have had to use your imagination for.
How is an anonymous couple making out at an empty party on Morris Ave a relevant, newsworthy photograph for this story or most any story - print edition or otherwise? My photojournalism professors would have given me a good kick in the behind for turning in that photograph, not to mention a handful of criticisms.
alright ,someone needs to look at the pics before they put them on here.....what in the world does that pic of a couple makin out have to do with halloween pics...someone needs to be fired...so far i have read murder and rape stories now this,come on people.
