We Are ND - Alec Hixenbaugh


A Long Journey 



Underdog



Upset Alert in South Bend 



Victory March 



We Are ND


The set of photographs to me capture the pride and joy of South Bend, Indiana. These five photographs represent the passion and dedication that the players and fans have for their school. The final pictures of the student section storming the court are representative of the Notre Dame fight song, the "Victory March." I am a big ND fan, and nothing was better than seeing them upset Kentucky at home. With all the exciting things Notre Dame has brought to South Bend this year, it only seemed fitting to chose them for this project.

  1. This is a pretty good idea for a photo series because of the large amount of available material. The photo series has some good shots. I like the fact that you took all of the photographs on your own while you were at the game and how you captured the celebratory aftermath as fans rushed on the court. The series embodies the excitement seen at one of the games. The thing that I dislike about this series is that you used the exact same filters for every photograph. It is almost hard to see the real detail in some pictures because the filters seem to dampen the resolution a bit. Also I feel that it makes the photos seem unrealistic.
