as a member of the blue team at eddie adams xxii, i got to work with some amazing photographers, students and instructors alike. team leaders lisa krantz, michael williamson, tim rasmussen and rob finch gave me some invaluable advice. we covered parksville, ny, a hamlet on the decline. the final blow to parksville is a new interstate due to be completed in the next few years. this will put an end to much of the traffic that goes through the town. many parksville businesses, including Fiddle's Dari-King ice cream shop, rely on customers driving through parksville. drivers will no longer spot the ice cream shop while waiting for the only traffic light in the area to turn green. Fiddle's Dari-King opened shop in 1963. although the owners will lose the business, they have other sources of income and will survive. still, they will "lose a family heirloom [they] hoped to pass on to [their] kids and grandchildren," says co-owner jodi fiddle.
