Update #1: The Gist!

Posted on June 24, 2009

Here's the big picture: I'm trying to raise money so I can photograph sea turtles hatching. The photos will be donated to like minded organizations for use in sea turtle advocacy campaigns. These types of organizations don't have the funding to send me, but I think capturing the images of these endangered animals is a really powerful way to move people to action. I need to raise $4,000 by August 3rd, to make it happen. I would be honored to have your support, please donate.
