what i hope to do with mine

I don't think that taking pictures - good, compelling, beautiful pictures - requires much talent. Rather, it requires an eye and good, compelling, beautiful natural scenery. We are blessed with an abundance.

Recently coming across a group who's mission statement I could not agree more with -  

Our mission is to further environmental and cultural conservation through ethical photography.  We believe that awe-inspiring photography is a powerful force for the environment, especially when paired with the collaboration of committed scientists, politicians, religious leaders and policy makers. We plan to replace environmental indifference with a new culture of stewardship and passion for our beautiful planet.
