This is a picture of the notable author, Greg Mortenson and his adventures in Afghanistan...his book, Three Cups of Tea, I found very inspirational. After reading this book, and listening to to Greg Mortenson speak at our school I feel as though I better understand the merit of this photograph.

The photographer was able to capture a strong narrative as well as to properly depict the personalities of the three subjects. I always try to portray the personalities and innate nature of my subjects but I often find this difficult...especially because once people see you have a camera in your hand they begin to act instead of just live in front of the lense.

I hope I can recreate the lives and personalities of those closest to me one day. I would really love to capture my grandparents and their relationship-which is disgustingly adorable !!! After 57 years of marriage my grandpa still opens my grandma's car door :) I think this will be a little assignment I'll do over winter break
