I don't know which is better - your story or your photos. I guess it doesn't matter because they make a fabulous package!

..i remembered Ray from your old post..i think it was taken at night with his hood on..i didnt comment on that one but i thought the lines and shadows were wonderful..but there was the serious and sad part of the photo though..and now it is nice seeing Ray in his element..smiling and apparently having a good time..sometimes good photo does not have to be technically good (not that yours isn't..they are!!) but the way emotions are conveyed through it..and you captured it beautifully..tnx for sharing..

Cool story, Diz! You're a true humanitarian! Great pics to commemorate the event! It looks like he was genuinely grateful.

I like the B/W presentation. Thanks for sharing that great story!
