War and Peace

Boots on the ground...

I would like to travel to every war torn part of the world. I would like to live amongst the people of those countries. Photograph their daily lives. I would also like to live amongst the soldiers, the peace keepers and photograph their daily lives.

Giving a human face to war and conflict is the first step toward a greater human understanding. Thank you for choosing to bring that to world's attention.

How nice it would be to see the faces of war from both sides through an un-biased lens... Your pictures are amazing, don't forget us Contractors' that face the same risks daily... :) Good Luck, you are already a winner to me!

I love this idea and I think it's an important point of view that civilians here in American cannot learn enough about. We've been at war for years, and I feel like we need to hear and see the stories of the people who might slip throught the cracks.

Good luck Simone!

Understanding true peace, entails more than the mere absence of war! I think chronicling the effects of the conditions of war upon its participants, in both battle and respite, is an essential portrait of the effect of the war upon the human condition.

Kudos Nicole!

Wow! this looks amazing! I think that it would take a very special person to do this. Someone who can find beauty anywhere. Someone who can take even harsh times and report them as they should be. Someone amazing!! You must be amazing!

Unite against the “network” that is scheming votes. Support ideas that are “lost” due to unworthy ideas using low tactics. “Insulin” is not the best idea. Something is wrong here and many fantastic ideas are getting lost due to the “network.” If you like my idea on “Vanishing Cultures,” vote for it.

Deb

I've seen the photos of your recent journey; Amazing!
You captured the essence of the people; the hardships, reality, joy, strength and hope they still hold on to. Compassion and love for humanity shines through the moments you capture in your pictures; I pray your Dream comes true!
