AP Photographers on How They Got The Shot ++REPLAY++

(27 Dec 2018) LEAD IN: Associated Press photographers explain how they took some of the biggest images of 2018. STORY-LINE: The scene of devastation at Mexico Beach, Florida. "I hear you," written in black Sharpie on a notecard held by President Donald Trump. American rockets streaking across the darkness over Damascus. A forlorn father and his son in the back of a Border Patrol vehicle. These were some of the defining images of 2018 that Associated Press photographers captured. AP Photographer Gerald Herbert notes the eerie silence in the aftermath of Hurricane Michael at Mexico Beach, but for a woman searching for a lost friend who was later found dead. "I remember there was a compelling moment where one woman was walking around trying to find an elderly lady that she knew was left behind, or who had stayed behind, I should say. And she kept calling out her name. Saying  'Aggie!' " he recalls. AP White House photographer Carolyn Kaster says she didn't realize what President Trump's notecard said when she furiously snapped photos of him looking at it during a listening session for Parkland victims. "The president, listening to all this powerful testimony, pulls out this note card, holds it for about 15 seconds, and then puts it back in his pocket. What we do normally is we photograph everything, especially trying to capture things that aren't directly presented. So, when I saw the note card, of course I photographed it. At the time, I couldn't read the note card. I couldn't read that it said; 'I hear you,' on it in black Sharpie." She says she wasn't surprised at the public's reaction to it. AP photographer Hassan Ammar says much of the run-up to getting a shot of U.S. airstrikes over Syria was spent waiting for anything to happen. He was thrilled when he saw the shot he got. "So, when I took a picture by remote, I didn't see it in my eyes on the viewfinder. So, I was not sure what I get until I saw the picture on the laptop. And the moment I opened it, I looked, I said; 'Wow, just nice. Just what I want. That's what I imagined before I arrived." And Matt York says his photograph of a boy and his father in the back of a Border Patrol truck wasn't technically phenomenal. But, "What made this picture good was the story that it told."
