Nice job by The Herald News with it's story by Deborah Allard on fire chief candidates.

Three photographs of the three hopefuls by staffer Dave Souza are given a side-by-side presentation that gives the effect of a larger visual. Each are shot from about the same perspective and given a similar crop.

Also nice is the how the outside photos keep the gentlemen facing into the package.

Inset in the story is a QR code that takes smartphone-toting readers right to the online coverage. A url is included to download the free app.

Elsewhere, the GOP primary story gets a nice mug shot treatment with vote total percentages.
Nice page.
