We're hosting a boy from an orphanage in Ukraine this summer. I was having trouble with him wanting to do nothing but play computer games. However, I finally managed to drag him out of the house. It was getting close to sundown, so I took him to a park where I knew good size herd of deer live. I brought two cameras (he took my new one, of course) and we walked. It was surprising how close the deer let him creep up on them. He still plays too many games, but he is willing to get out of the house more now. Perhaps he'll go back with a love for photography at the end of the summer.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

What a wonderful experience for him. I hope that he goes back with a love of photography and nature Jeff. Great shot for him to remember this memorable occurrence.

You've created a wonderful experience for him, and I'm sure that this is something he will never forget. Games are not reality...but the kindness shown to him by someone who cares is...and that is what will stay with him.

What a wonderful experience for him and how very kind of you to open your home and yourself to him. He could learn much about photography from you.
