Yesterday I received an email from Franz Dejon of the United Nations Energy Program requesting the use of some of my Pantanal photographs. They have asked to use them for Biodiversity Day which is May 22. They are hoping to bring awareness to issues like global warming and it's effect on different ecosystems.
While I don't agree with them completely about global warming, I am all for anything that increases awareness of the Pantanal wetlands.
Back in the day I was published a few times by a local community newspaper for some sports photos but the photos they have asked for were from my first attempt at wildlife photos.
It's an honor just to be asked to be a part of this event. You can find out more about Biodiversity Day at this link:
