The inspiring photo
You are a volunteer photographer asked to take pictures for the hospital volunteer newsletter.
The editor asks you to photograph a visitor in a wheelchair in the lobby garden and describes the image as "inspiring." When you ask, the visitor says yes right away, but she hesitates when the editor mentions a caption. The editor needs the photos within the hour for the layout. The visitor has not seen the caption wording. You decide whether to take the photos and submit as planned.
