New Photo Essay

Cameron, I had a chance to look at this awhile back, and I thought there were some very touching/moving images in there..it’s too late for me to look again now, but will try to look again and let you know which I found the strongest if thats the kind of feedback you are after.

Erica, thanks….that’s exactly what I’m looking for. The great thing about the web is that I can publish the story however I want, lol. There are two images that I really loved that a lot of people didn’t think should get published. One is of Noelle, it’s all blurry but her hand. And the other is of Timmy, and it’s all blurry but his face. I thought these photos might have given the viewer a little taste of what autism is like to the person who has it as opposed to what a person with autism looks like. I didn’t want my story to say, “oh look at these poor children.” But at the same time, I didn’t want to interject my own interpretation of a disorder that I can never come close to actually experiencing. I don’t know, just something I had to think hard about, and something that I would like to hear other people’s opinions about.
