Here come seven photos.
Well, actually technically I posted this post after I posted the photos, but if I’d posted this before, then it would show up after…really. I thought this out carefully.
Each has a story, each tells a story. Each is a story.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
Note that the burners are going under all three pots. The fourth burner is going too, making hot cocoa.

These kids make me smile and somedays cry.
She’s an orphan, taken in by an old widow who lives in the small community of Yula San Juan Nueva Esperanza. The widow, 65 years old, works in the fields while her daughter takes care of four orphans; a fifth orphan, a little 6 year old boy, is going to move in with them in a week.
This may be the best photo that’s come from any camera of mine–and disgruntlingly enough I wasn’t the one who took it. Deisy, a coworker, took the picture, in full-auto-mode. 1/6s shutter, iso 400, f3.0…like, what…but…how?
I tweeked the exposure in lightroom–the camera’s meter overcooked the exposure by a hair–otherwise it’s unedited.
Look at her smile.
Dear God please help this little girl to never ever forget how to spin around and dance and smile.
