These photographs just make me happy.

I was recently asked who my hero is. And I had to stop. And think.

Did they mean hero? Or superhero?

Because there's a big difference.

Superheroes can turn an ordinary Tuesday into an exciting afternoon! filled with civilian-protecting adventures! and travel over rooftops by silken webs shot from their wrists!

Heroes are the real people behind it all.

If you look closely, our world is full of 'em. Sometimes they're just a little disguised.

Other times....they sit out at the counter at night, scarfing brownies with their brother and sister and showing off their full regalia.

And that's pretty fun, too.
