Rarely does a city embrace an athlete the way Boston embraced Bobby Orr. I snapped this photo today while working at the Boston Herald, and my phone and twitter account have not stopped ringing since. I certainly know that I have not snapped an award-winning photograph here, rather an everyday, run-of-the-mill photo. The response to the photo is a testament to the power of the relationship between Orr and the city that still loves him.

Perfect timing, one of Boston’s greatest athletes in a photograph by an award winning photographer! Always on target Mark!
Thank you! I loved him as a kid 🙂
