I'm resubmitting this photo because it is so appropriate for this month's Education theme.
---
This is my friend and photo mentor, Bill. We were doing a news assignment in Fishtown, a Philadelphia neighborhood that is now undergoing a wonderful "Renaissance."
----
It was a "college bowl" type event in which schools were competing in a scholastic contest.
---
Bill was so impressed with the kids, that after he "got his shots" he volunteered to help by being a "question asker."
----
While he was waiting to participate, a crowd of kids of all ages and sizes collected around him and he drilled them for a delightful hour with "practice questions" that he was pulling seemingly out of his ... well ....pocket?
------
It was a joy to watch!
------
Crazy busy the last two days. Catch up here tomorrow.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
