Photo essay

This challenge was to photograph an event and take photos to help express the event. The event that i photographed was the Black History Month assembly that occurred at our school in late February. 
The picture that I chose to represent the assembly is a picture of John Daniels playing the piano. The piece that he was playing was a traditional African-American song.
