sanctuary

So when i received my assignment in FW6 to go to a big cats rescue & education facility, i was really excited but totally clueless of how to shoot to this assignment. I came in thinking it’s going to be a zoo-like place. I was totally wrong. This place is a safe haven, a sanctuary, as my mentor Anna called it. It is filled with rescued tigers, lions, cougars, panthers, leopards, and other cats, that were abandoned or abused.
 
As I began to know Vicky, the lady who started it all, and the volunteers, I started to see my story. As I spent time following the volunteers on their daily activities, I can see their passion for the cats, and it translated to their full dedication to these magnificent cats. My story isn’t about the volunteers. My story is about the cats. It’s about finding beauty in the rescued cats, a beauty & character that is so great that it captivated the hearts of Vicky and the volunteers, and me. When our team was editing my images, I half jokingly said to Amy, my team leader, that the tigers are my bride in this assignment ^_^
 
Now I want to share my presentation and I’m moved to do what I can for the magnificent cats at In-Sync Exotics. They are a non-profit organization so they rely on donation yearly to support and rescue more cats. So let’s do this:
