The summer interns are probably already sick of hearing my speeches about looking for pictures that connect with readers. Pictures that tell a story or a convey a mood instead of simply proving an event happened. On Tuesday, I looked for kids’ reactions as they learned dance moves from Thunder Girls. Bryan Terry got a picture at a dive-in movie, recently, that really feels like summer. Here are a few pictures we’ve taken in the last couple of weeks.
