We have all heard the saying that a picture is worth a thousand words. So in this challenge, see if you can portray your subject in such a way that it conveys a story to, or invokes an emotion with your viewers. It may not be as easy at it sounds, but give it a go and have fun. I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone's stories.

Ok Thom will give this a go, you are right needs a lot of thought

Eve was a customer of mine, from day one we hit it off and over the years we bonded so well, she classed me as her 3rd son and I told her she was my 2nd Mum

She was in showbiz most of her life and the stories well, loved hearing them

If I needed an agent for my Photography/Artwork she would have been my first choice, Eve loved my work and told everybody, bless her.

She passed 16 months ago having fought cancer and lost the battle. About 3 months earlier she gave me this Italian glass Swan which I photographed and worked for her to see, she loved them all. This particular one I worked to show the Swan and the shadow Swan is her spirit which will always be with me

Thank you Irene. That is my son, Tom. Both he and his wife Jen are extremely supportive of their two boys. Their dedication to TJ and Justin I think is shown by they way they will stand out in pouring rain to watch a football game. So few of the other parents were there. I'm so very proud of them.
