It has been said that you can find a reason to love any person if you get to know their life story.  Each person has within their being a noble essence that is valuable to them, their environment and the world in which they exist.

For me, the investigation, interaction and capturing images of the individual is a very rewarding endeavor.  Those images presented here may represent a passing encounter or a long-period discovery.  Regardless, I believe they reflect a valuable element of the person portrayed.
