Brothers and Football
Uploaded: September 20, 2012

This was shot at a groundbreaking ceremony for a new football field in Hunting Park, Philadelphia, a low-income area that the city Parks Department has chosen for redevelopment. A new baseball field in the neighborhood, partially funded by a generous donation from Phillies star Ryan Howard was recently completed.
-----
The football field is being similarly funded by a $200K donation from the Michael Vick Foundation.
----
These two kids and their football were spotted by Philadelphia Mayor, Michael Nutter, who is standing behind them. Not one to miss a great photo opportunity, a few seconds later, he was posing with the children (see remarks area).

Both photos are processed with Topaz's new Simplify 4.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
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.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
