October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month, and today we are revisiting one of our heroes with Down syndrome, teenage photographer Oliver Hellowell.  Oliver Hellowell is an internationally acclaimed photographer who is only 19 years old.  His Facebook page has garnered tens of thousands of likes — and for good reason: the page features Oliver’s spectacular work capturing wildlife photography on a regular basis.  What makes Oliver’s work even more fascinating is the fact that the teen also has Down syndrome.
