In 2011, there were 3.9 million foreclosures in the United States. I think that is a very important problem in America and it needs to be addressed.

PTA "Magic of the Moment" photo

I choose this photo because I believe the man in the picture is taking in the beauty of the scenery. He is relaxing and enjoying the magnificence of nature. The magic in this moment is a human connecting with peace and harmony, which we seem to forget all to often today.
