Your American Hero tribute to SPC Jose A. Velez really zaps you between the eyes. Normally all you read in the papers or see in the news is another person hurt. Nice to see something you can put a name to and maybe understand a little more why they are there. Who these Guys are! Thanks for sharing his Story....Brian

You have a very impressive portofolio, and I wouldnt know on which one to comment. Regardless of political views I think you are doing a great job. Your photos are very emotive and taken at the right moment. Keep up the good work!

Tracey,

Thank-you for your comments. Also I wish I had shot this a little sharper myself. It was the slow shutter speed that killed me on that one.

Best Wishes,

Chuck

Another great shot Chuck I just felt with this one it needed to be a little sharper, my personal opinion, well caught and I think you are all hero's regards Tracey..

I wonder if he carries chocolates and sweets in his green bag hanging from his belt for the local children, if there are any on the streets!!

Amazing- true life and times- seems strange to see it here with all the cute babies and pet photos...I do like it though. My brother just returned from Iraq- this touches me deeply. Keep up the good work.
