First - Really nice collection of photos that make a compelling story.
Opener is great. Closer makes perfect sense. Everything else
contributes
Second - The shot of Katheline Castin makes up for where the weak
opened leaves us, but saying in a caption that a grieving person
"sheds up" is highly questionable, at best.
Third - The photographer was really working hard that day. Great
moments, sense of place, behind the scenes.
