What is a Photo Story
What is a Photo Story
In photographic practice, visual storytelling is often called a ‘photo essay’ or ‘photo story’. It’s a way for a photographer to narrate a story with a series of photographs.

I want to be able to inspire by taking photographs that capture moments and freeze time.

I would Love to celebrate Father’s Day by sharing a little story about my dad and his time spent during WWII. My father was a man of many secrets. He was the man who raised me. I know if he was here today he would understand my quest and help me. Recently I came across a small box, inside was some WWII memorabilia. His Military History lists Civilian Occupation “Manager Production”.
Date of Induction 28 Jun 43, Date of Active Service 12 Jul 43
He graduated from Lawson General Hospital in Atlanta Georgia, December 6, 1943. Military occupation Medical “Medical Technician MOS 409”
One item was a small bible Jewish Holy Scripture “The Army of the United States”. Inside on the first page, my dad had wrote Presented to PFC Manuel Hochberg June 20, 1944, I am Aboard the SS Argentina en route to the European Theatre of Operations. New York – Liverpool, England. He was with 104th Field Artillery. My father never shared much of his whereabouts or experiences in Europe except for the medical. He was supposed to be assisting, instead, he was amputating to save lives. Also amongst his belongings was a German Mark written on it Captured Nazi 1945. The war ended May 8, 1945, I discovered another piece of history about my dad, he returned home from Europe on the Queen Mary Arrival date 20 June 1945. He received an Honorable discharge as Sgt. Manuel Hochberg.
Queen Mary
Passenger List
He received several medals including European African Middle Eastern Service Medal, Good Conduct Medal, Americanism-Patriotism. Date of Separation September 8, 1945. Fort Lewis Washington. We grow up in a house without guns. My father believed they were to be used in battle only. He always enjoyed a good Military movie or Military Museum. Favorite films The Great Escape, The Alamo, Bridge on the River Kwai and John Wayne. Visiting West Point often and different Army bases.
As we mark Father’s Day today, I’d like to convey my thanks and gratitude to the fathers and grandfathers in our military family. This is a time for all of us to recognize and show our appreciation to fathers for everything they do in bettering our military, securing our nation, helping to raise and nurture our families, and inspiring future generations of Americans to serve. GOD BLESS AMERICA🇺🇸
The one regret I have is that he didn’t live long enough to meet my son David, and my nieces, Erin and Aimee. They missed the opportunity to meet their grandfather which my dad would have called all of them Candy ass kids. You will always be in my heart, your little Princess Diana.

  3 Musketeers
What a beautiful evening. Last September I was in Vancouver, B.C. and was fortunate to have dinner with my friend James at Giardino and meet “Umberto Menghi”. He was born in Pontedera, Tuscany. He was 16 when he enrolled in hotel school in Rome. He trained in London and Paris, moved to Canada in 1967. In Vancouver, he noticed the absence of authentic food Italian Cooking and determined to do something about it. He now owns 3 popular restaurants in Vancouver and the ski resort of Whistler In addition 5 best-selling cookbooks. Cooking show “The Elegant Appetite” Giardino is the hottest ticket in town, a must if visiting Vancouver. He is charming and a breath of fresh air.
Between the vaulted ceilings, hand painted artwork,  Tuscan tiles and wooden beams it makes you feel like you just stepped into Tuscany. The atmosphere was authentic and the service was impeccable.

Once, for a moment I called to him on a damp street with no name., I don’t care what might be said. I want things back the same  Where has love gone too? Down a dusty road leaving no trail. I try to find another,  Only to realize…

Taking Chances
Maybe it won’t work or maybe finally taking all the risks and steps will work out, if you don’t live your life and take chances you stop growing. If you think about it often it’s worth taking the risk. I don’t know all the answers perhaps I never will. As many people have quoted take a chance, learn from the past and realize the most exciting adventures are just on the other side of your fears. I…
