Title: Big Guy, Big Heart (font: Last Ninja)


Journaling: Bouncer. Bodyguard. Stuntman. Villain. Holder of 10 breaking records (concrete, ice, marble, boards).


To us, he was a friend who became an "Uncle" - a massive hulk of a man who turned to mush around babies. This non-smoker finally met a foe he couldn't defeat, falling to lung cancer in August 2015. We miss you, Rick Faraci.


(NOTE: He also was diagnosed with dyslexia and finally learned to read as an adult so he could read bedtime stories to his daughter, and he used his skills at breaking to hold fundraising events for various charities. I'm just sad I didn't have room to journal those details, too.)

The challenge was to use square photos and filters.
All photos are square, including the background, which is a publicity shot with a large white background which I used as journaling space.

Photo adjustments include: opacity (background), converting to black & white (3 of the 4 small photos), adding texturizer filter (the 4th photo in color).
