"It must have been wonderful to have had such a good friend."
Naomi loved hearing about Baron's childhood. "It must have been wonderful to have had such a good friend." "Yes it was. The two boys were inseparable, and spent a lot of time together." "They both loved horses....." "...and could go riding for hours." "It was something they both enjoyed, and was one of their favourite things to do...." "...even as they got older."

The last two photos are great! Well they all are really, but the transition from boyhood to manhood in the same spot and the same pose is terrific.

Thanks. I took that photo with the two boys sitting under the tree the same day as the photos with them on the beach with their horses, then got the idea for a 'transition photo' so went back a few days later to take the second one with the men sitting under the same tree..

I echo Donna. Oh my goodness, the last two photos are amazing! They link the two halves of the story.

Absolutely love the photos of the boys! But the two showing them younger then older are so great, clever, and enjoyable! Again, well done!!! Amazingly clever.

Thanks. I didn't come up with the idea of that last photo of the boys becoming the transitional one until a few days after I took it. So then we went back with the men to that very same tree.

I got to that last picture and you brought tears to my eyes. Don't ever let anyone discount your storytelling mastery, Martha. You have a true gift.
