Athena, this is the Challenge Favorite in the Picture is 1000 Words Photo Challenge. I am still waiting for ViewBug to tell me how to award the photo. The struggles, concerns, hopes, and dreams of this man . . .father, husband, son, friend, as shown in his face and your capture speaks to me. This photo expresses 1000 unspoken words and is exactly what I was looking for. Congratulations!
