Vital Voices

Just to share with you my photography fellows. 6 or 7 years ago I started shooting tiny flowers, bugs and landscapes, I wanted to share them with you guys in Flickr, many of you offered me help to improve my photography but one of my mentors in England called Pete, someone whose friendship has changed my life for the better. He in England, me in Honduras, 2 different countries and cultures, languages, races but with the same goal, to spread some joy to poor children in my place.

2 weeks ago I was awarded by the NGO Vital Voices Honduras with the Leadership in Human Rights 2016, I never ever expected to be awarded, it was never my intention to be recognized like that but one thing takes you to another and now I want to share my little success and I want to inspire others to use our hobby to something meaningful.

I have always said "Photography has changed my life"

If you want to get to know this brown, short and old woman, many of you won´t understand a word as it is in Spanish, there is a video they made about my job in Brighter Lives. Thanks for watching.
