1. The most powerful picture to me is photo number 7. His cousins Shane and Buddha realize that Ian is really gone to the Army and it doesn't hit tim until they see him drive off. This is something I can relate to because my favorite uncle is a Sargent in the Army and I get worried what might happen  or what could happen.

Set #1 At home in Denver #1-#9

Set #2 Basic training #10-#49

Set #3 In Iraq #50-#70

Set #4 Back in Denver #70-#83

The pictures most powerful were photos #5, #6, #7, #12, #22 , #31, #47, #75, #78. All these photos have a dramatic emotion. 

These images all go together to create the story of a young man trying to go into the army and him overcoming leaving his family and ending relationships. Their everyday photos of him so its basically telling his life story through all these images.

September 23, 2001. I sat there with my father just thinking of all the things we've overcame. Finding out the news that I needed a heart transplant was one tough situation, one of the toughest things to overcome. But tomorrow I have faith that I will live through it.

September 24, 2001. Jesse said goodbye to his cousins as they thought about the surgery he was about to go through tonight. Knowing that this is life threatening makes it much overwhelming for them. With his father Michael and aunt Crystal waiting to take him to the hospital.

September 25, 2001. Michael sat in the waiting room with a cross his mother gave him when he was a child. He prayed that his son will recover and make it through his surgery. He had so much hope and faith that his soon will be okay.

The features help you understand the photo than just looking at the photos and captions.

The videos are better because its more than just a picture you can actually view his life and his full expressions.

Photos are better than vides because you can capture a moment that you absolutely love and have that one image always there.
