  2. Two things. First, I like the top photo quite a lot. In fact, I like it a lot more than the kid with no head photo. Moment, layers, everything. Second, I love the second photo. It says a lot about you, and why you do this job I think. :)

I'm hungry for life and pictures and giving of myself. Photojournalism, for me, is an avenue for documentation, art, and compassion. All photos copyright Libby March, Central Michigan Life, The Midland Daily News, The Jackson Citizen Patriot, or the Concord Monitor.
