As a result of my work with the Surrey Foundation I have become the “official” photographer for the Surrey Food Bank. No one should go hungry. Here’s a little slide show of the Christmas Kickoff.
Making it Real by Sheena Wilkie
Each month when I was a little girl, we received the National Geographic magazine. And each month, I acquired another animal to be concerned about or another person’s plight to care about. I had never seen a sea turtle, but I cried when I saw a photograph of one entangled in a net. When I looked at the photographs of whalers hunting off the coast of Japan; the urgent cries of the whales, their thrashing, and the spray of their blood was entirely real for me. I’d never been to Biafra, but the children with those big sad eyes and distended bellies touched me in a way that shaped who I would become.
