snapshots - chapter one

Kind of testing the waters on this... not finished by any stretch of the imagination. i'm fond of the main character, but not sure if he works, so... What i'd like from you folks is an honest and specific critique --- don't pull punches. Give me something i can work with regarding dialog, plot, characterization(s). Basically, tell me if this would keep you reading or if i should relegate this to the dustbins of the jump drive...
