This post is dedicated to all who love photography
including my dear friend, JV
I have on several occasions asked JV to submit his work to National Geographic.
I was watching a TV documentary last night called,
I was in AWE of this man, what he does to get the perfect shot, we the viewers
of his work and others at this magazine do not know what these people give up
just to travel and also risk their lives for a photograph that will stun us
and bring happiness and tears to our hearts.
He also has seen the effects of the deforestation of the jungles
and global warming.
He lives with these visions in his mind and heart and this too effects his photography as he wants to educate all humans
how to love our earth more before it's all gone.

HI Wenchong so many keep their mind in the “PERFECT” and there really isn’t anything PERFECT.. just in our own minds eye ..This man is on a quest for obtaining the “PERFECT” and yet he has stated he feelhis photos are NOT any where near what people state about them. Now that you know you look for “PERFECT” try to settle for less or your stress level will be to high for your heart..Fati
Mohamed you are welcome and this is why I did the post to showmy readers that these people men and women go around the worldget sick from insects and yet keep shooting.. One man last year died living in the wilderness shooting a documentary onbears and he died by one.. He met his fate.Thank you for readingFatimah
Hi Fatimah,Yes you said the truth… just in our own minds eye …”PERFECT” is not really perfect, it just in our heart…You said the man who died for the bears, my heart was impacted by the story… it is grateful… ” yeah “He met his fate”…I believe the “PERFECT” or the best smiling is the moment when he “MET”…YoursWenchong
HI Wenchong,His friends said they were sure he was happy to die in this manner since helived with them for a very long time and even named them bears.They killed the bear that killed him and found parts of this man inside the bearand also his watch. :(Thank you for feeling the meaning of the post.Fatimah
