All out in the open

This hospital photography job is turning out to be quite an adventure. Every day is a new experience with new people & new personalities. An average day at the hospital for me involves 12 new babies to visit. Every time I knock on a hospital door, it's a new life experience. There are so many different kinds of people in the world, and the maternity ward does not always bring out the pleasant side of people. I could really write a book about the experiences in the maternity ward (without violating HIPPA).

“People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within.”

—Elisabeth Kubler-Ross (1926-2004); psychiatrist, educator
