Quilcene’s Bishop Budnek has more spare talent falling off of him in the time he brushes by you than you ever had in your whole life. You’d jump at the chance to stand next to him in hopes it might rub off - assuming you don’t trip over your own shoe laces in the process. True story by the way! Budnek excels academically as well, with interests in mathematics and business leadership. I don’t know him well enough to call him the Pacific Northwest version of the “Swede” in Philip Roth’s American Pastoral but, chapter one might as well be about Budnek. When coach had to break it to Bishop that he wasn’t going to allow him to play in the second half on account of his injured ankle, the “Swede” was suddenly gone. In his place stood someone different. Someone I could suddenly relate to. He was real. As though Pinocchio himself had sprung to life and jumped off the page. No strings attached! I raised the camera to my eye and took the shot. It wasn’t until I got home that I began to question the ethics behind that decision. I was split. Arguing back and forth with myself. “He’s still in high school. He never asked for any attention,” I pleaded. I retorted, “Every photo that you have submitted of Bishop is of him being the hero. That can be a lot of pressure. This could give him the freedom to be whoever he wants to be.” After thinking about it a little longer, I decided to go with my instincts and clicked “Send” on my email to the editor.
