Tonight I was invited to speak to Medway Troop 62216. They are working on their photography badge, so we talked about photos, cameras, Medway. All ready to shoot with iPads, the girls were given some time after the presentation to take photos that they would edit and collage with during the rest of their meeting. They are all naturals and very creative, looking for lights, angles, and reflections. Thank you for having me at the meeting. Welcome to the dailypic!

I am that creepy guy that walks around in the pouring snow, in the dark with a camera. Sets up a tripod in the middle of Main St, walks in the road because the sidewalks are buried. You know the type. This is some of what I found.

A few of the smiling faces from today’s special Santa Sessions. Set up at Oakland Park in Medway, Santa was safely in the back of the gazebo, and kids and families greeted and took photos with Santa from a distance.
Thank you to the incredible Parks and Recreation Director Julie for helping set up – it would not have happened without her, and the Medway Lions Club for sponsoring this and so many other town events. We could not have asked for a better back drop, Fresh snow, white trees, and blue sky.
Thank you to all those who came out to take part and to Santa for making the trip to Medway.

On a day of remembrance, I was asked to take some photos at Matondi Square in Medway. This morning I was with Chief (ret MPD) and Mrs. Saleski to meet with Medway High School Senior, Sreenidhi Ravipati as she placed tribute stones at the foot of the war memorials. Each stone was for Medway residents who have passed while serving the country. Below are Sreenidhi’s words about the project and those who helped her. Well done Sreenidhi.

Every year, 9/11 is a day to remember and honor who we lost. I was not alive at that time but I think that makes it even more important that I help remember. From my ambassador year, in 8th grade, and through all my alumni years in Project 351, until now, I have led a 9/11 tribute service. The weeks leading up, I collect wish list items for the Mass Military Heroes Fund and then on the day of 9/11, I go into Boston to join a couple other ambassadors and alumni to make care packages for our troops and veterans. This year, due to Covid, I was unable to lead our usual service but I still wanted to do something to honor this day. With Mr. Saleski’s help, I was able to get the names of our fallen heroes, military members who died while serving, and their branch of service. My friends and I then got together to make stones for each person. As I got to learn about a few, I was touched by their stories. Our town is filled with many amazing people and I am so incredibly grateful that I could help honor a few.
The friends who helped me were Molly Britton, Maisie Donohue, Rena Weafer, and Maevis Fahey. I wouldn’t have been able to do this without their help 🙂
