Hand Held

I thought the movie Hand Held showed an important view into another world's problems. There are a lot of other movies that do this but it's not common to find one that is strictly a person's view and story as they experience it. Too commonly is the information strictly factual. Through the story you get his home life, his emotions, and his confusion as to being a person in charge of reporting a whole nations depression. It's really moving when you hear his emotional telling of the story.

 Michael is now heading up his own team and working with companies in photography and digital retouching. He just went to the Virgin Islands to take photographs as he reported on his blog here: http://mikecarrollphoto.blogspot.com/

The above comment was not actually true. That link was posted off the real Mike Carroll's blog but it's not actually him. It's a different Mike Carroll. His ACTUAL website is here:

He's still living in Massachusetts and he's still taking photos and visits Romania annually for his charity. As well as visiting them because that's where he loves to be. He has no planned next photo shoot.






Orphans in Romania

The condition for the children has gotten slightly better since the change in government but it's not anything that makes a true difference. The children are still suffering, people remain helping and donating their time and money and it has become a bigger noticed issue.
