I was reminded this week, that Brother has a natural talent in the area of photography. I had decided to use our summer to go exploring in our area. There are many historic homes and battlefields near us. The AoA kids and I visited a home called “Rippavilla”. I didn’t even notice that Brother was quietly taking pictures during the tour. It was after the tour that I noticed him crossing a field and squatting to get shots at different angles. Nobody taught him this. Here are some of the pictures he took.
Our next trip is planned already, and I can’t wait to see what he captures!
Interestingly, his therapist is now helping us treat what is being called “selective mutism”. He struggles trying to communicate in many more situations than the average teen. I hope that through photography and music, he will find his voice…
